A Bangladeshi couple used to be sentenced to loss of life via a tribunal on Wednesday for promoting a 17-year-old woman to a brothel in India, consistent with media reviews.

The incident happened in Khulna district.

In its verdict, the Khulna Ladies and Youngsters Repression Prevention Tribunal pronounced capital punishment for the couple — known as Shahin Sheikh and Asma Begum — for promoting {the teenager} to the brothel in India, Bangladeshi information company UNB reported.

In step with the prosecution, the convicts took the woman to India with the promise of arranging a excellent process and offered her there to a brothel on October 19, 2009, the Dhaka Tribune newspaper reported.

Then again, the reviews didn’t point out the positioning of the brothel.

As the woman’s circle of relatives failed to track her, they logged a common diary in opposition to the couple on the native police station. Later, Shahin demanded Tk 20,000 (approx USD 230) from {the teenager}’s circle of relatives to get her again.

The woman’s mom lodged a criticism in opposition to the couple at Khanjahan Ali police station, and on January 20, 2010, the investigating officer of the case submitted a fee sheet in opposition to the duo.
