The murder case dates back to 2021, following the death of Liton Mia during anti-Modi protests in the Sarail Bishwaroad area.

The case was filed by Maulana Sultan Uddin on September 3 on behalf of the victim, naming 67 people, including Sheuly, as well as several hundred other unidentified people.

Sheuly was arrested by the Detective Branch (DB) police from her residence in Dhaka’s Niketan last night.
