Rubel's mother filed a case with Ramna police station accusing Ratan, Halim, Babu, Hanif and three other unnamed persons of killing her son as a sequel to rivalry. A resident of Mohammadia Housing, Rubel was scheduled to go to Chittagong by night coach on July 16 with some of his friends, added his mother. Police suspect that Rubel was involved in extortion and many other illegal businesses. A Speedy Trial Tribunal sentenced him to jail for five years in a case since he remained absconding for a long time. Campus sources said the number of outsiders staying in halls under the direct shelter of the ruling BNP's student wing Jatiya Chattra Dal(JCD) and their roaming on the campus has increased alarmingly in the recent past. Sources also said that Rubel used to come and stayed several times with a JCD leader of the hall for more than six months. Additional police were deployed on the campus in this connection.
