Razia Sultana, jail warden at Jessore Central Jail, lodged a case with the Women and Children Repression Control Special Tribunal.

In the case filed on Saturday, Razia Sultana alleged that since her joining at Jessore Central Jail on April 9 this year, the DIG (Prison) tried to harass her sexually on several occasions.

Some jail staff including a Reserve Habilder and a Jail Guard helped the DIG in the immoral motive.

They took her to the residence of the DIG (prison) and left her there alone. Finding her alone, the DIG (prison) tried to abuse her sexually.

Razia Sultana went to Kotwali police station on October 14 to lodge a case against the DIG but the on-duty Sub Inspector (SI) refused to record the case.

She then filed a case with the Women and Children Repression Control Special Tribunal on October 16.

The Judge of the court recorded the case and asked the Deputy Commissioner (DC) for a judicial probe into the allegation and submit a report by October 25.

The court fixed October 26 for hearing of the case.
