Five hoodlums allegedly tried to abduct the minor from her residence and attempted to rape her.

The hoodlums brutally stabbed 36-year-old Fatema Bibi to death with a sharp object after breaking into their house in an attempt to abduct her 15-year-old daughter.

Bibi’s husband, Sabiruddin Sheikh, who was at work as of that time of the incident said she was killed because she fought against the abduction and rape of their daughter.

Fatema was rushed to the Jangipur hospital where she was declared brought dead.

The police are investigating the incident.
