Otboy named Aminul Islam (Operation Theater Assistant) is on his death bed after mysteriously falling from the 4th floor roof of Jamuna Clinic and Diagnostic Center in Kurigram city. The injured Aminul is the son of Sekender Ali of Jamuna Sarkar Para village of Ulipur Upazila.
On reaching the spot, it was learned that a person from Ravidas community was admitted to Jamuna Clinic and Diagnostic Center for hernia operation from Bhurungamari Upazila. He was staying at the clinic with his wife after the operation. On Saturday (September 14) around 6 o'clock in the morning, Otiboy Aminul Islam took the patient's wife to the roof by telling her to give a gauze bandage. After going there, he tried to rape the patient's wife. The woman pulled herself away from him and called her husband and other family members to come to the clinic. About two hours later, at around 8 am, the woman of the house adjacent to the clinic saw Aminul lying in a bloody state behind the clinic and called the people of the clinic. Then the people of the clinic and the fire service personnel rescued him and took him to the Kurigram General Hospital. When Aminul's condition worsened, the doctor there referred him to Rangpur Medical College Hospital for better treatment.
Residents complain that medical services are being provided in an unsanitary environment at the clinic. Bad smell around the clinic and lack of adequate light and ventilation. The people of the village come to seek treatment and sometimes face financial harassment. However, they also said that the matter of Aminul falling from the roof is mysterious. A relative of the admitted patient of the clinic, who did not want to be named, said that even though the same Otiboy had committed such an incident earlier, the authorities did not take any action.
On speaking to the victim, she said in a tearful voice, "My husband needs gauze bandages for post-surgery dressings." Otiboy Aminul called me to the roof of the 4th floor to give this gauze bandage. After taking the gauze bandage in his hand, he held me in a jap with the intention of raping me. I don't know what happened on the roof after that. However, I told the matter to the director of the clinic, Mizu Sir, along with my family members. I want justice.
Kabir Hossain, senior station officer of Kurigram Fire Service, said that after receiving a message at 8:30 in the morning, we reached the spot and rescued the seriously injured person who fell from the roof and took him to the emergency department of Kurigram General Hospital. He was being treated there.
Speaking to Yamuna Clinic and Diagnostic Center Director Syed Mojibul Islam Miju, he denied that Otiboy tried to rape the patient's wife and gave wrong information to reporters. Later, in front of the journalists in director Mizu's room, the victim woman said that the incident of Otiboy's misdeeds had been reported to the director long ago. Director Mizu then requested the journalists not to report the fact of concealment of information.
On speaking to Kurigram Sadar police station officer in charge (OC) Masudur Rahman, he said that he did not know anything about this.
