A Lakshmipur court on Wednesday (Mar 1) sentenced a woman to ten years in jail for killing his eight-year-old son in 2019. Lakshmipur District and Sessions Judge Md Rohibul Islam passed the verdict and sent the convict to jail. However, the court also fined the convict Swapna Begum, 30, Tk 5,000.Public Prosecutor Jasim Uddin confirmed the matter.

He said the convict will pass her jail period at her home under District Social Services Office as the court came up with a provisional judgment, considering her age, behaviour and other related angles. She will not be allowed to get involved in any other crimes in this time.

According to the case documents, on October 14, 2019, as Swapna was working in a neighbouring house, Kawser came to her and was demanding Tk 10 for buying something to eat. She sent him back home and after coming back from work, Kawser again started demanding money. In a fit of rage, Swapna strangled her son to death.

Father of the child Rasel filed a case against Swapna with Sadar Police Station on October 15, 2019.
