Anjali Debi The dead Anjali Devi, 57, wife of Dr Rajendra Chowdhury, was a senior teacher of t
he college on the Chittagong Medical College Hospital (CMCH) campus. She along with her family used to live in a rented house at Gaser Goli of Telipatti under Panchlaish Police Station. Rajendra said Anjali left home around 8:30am for her college. Within 15 minutes, the guard of the house informed him that his wife was stabbed by some youths.  “When I reached the spot, which is around 30-40 yards off the house, I saw my wife lying in a pool of blood. I took her to the CMCH by a CNG-run auto-rickshaw.” Quoting witness Mohammad Yasin, Panchlaish police said four youths attacked Anjali while she was waiting at Telipatti intersection for a rickshaw. Locals could not come to save the teacher as the attackers were equipped with sharp weapons and firearms. As Yasin started hurling brick chips at the criminals, they ran away, brandishing firearms, police added. Anjali was admitted to the hospital around 9:45am. She died in the intensive care unit around 12:00 noon, said in-charge of CMCH police camp.

I cannot suspect anybody for murdering my wife.” Minara Begum, principal of the nursing college, said, “As far as I know, she [Anjali] was on good terms with her students and colleagues. And I never heard of any complaint against her who had been working in the college for nearly 34 years.” Around 400 students of the college brought out a procession in the afternoon, demanding the arrest of the perpetrators. Mohiuddin Mahmood, officer-in-charge of Panchlaish Police Station, said, “It does not seem like a case of mugging as the attackers did not take away Anjali's mobile phone, money and handbag. It appears to be a pre-planned murder. We are investigating to find out the motive behind the killing and the culprits.”
