MP Azim's daughter calls for capital punishment of murderers

Mumtarin Ferdous Dorin, daughter of murdered Member of Parliament Anwarul Azim Anar, has called for capital punishment for the murderers of her father. 

"Those who were arrested in connection with my father's murder, they killed many more innocent people in the past. Look at their previous record," she said while talking to journalists at her residence in Jhenidah city at around 11:30am on Friday. 

Appealing to the prime minister, she said, "As the honourable prime minister ensured justice for her father's murder, she can also ensure justice for my father's murder."

She also asked the authorities to help retrieve her father's body. 

Jhenaidah-4 Constituency MP Anwarul Azim Anar allegedly went to Kolkata for medical treatment on May 12. His family informed police when they lost contact with him on May 14. A search operation was launched to trace the three-time Awami League MP.

On Wednesday, India's police said he was murdered in a flat in Sanjiva Garden of the New Town area in Kolkata. 

Kolkata CID later arrested a Bangladeshi man named Siam, who was occupying the flat in Sanjiva Garden on 13 May. Investigators also arrested a cab driver named Juber. The rental car which was used to carry away the body parts was seized on Thursday morning.
