die
In January 2022, she went to Mahwah, Bangladesh for a shooting project. When she didn’t come home, her brother tried to call her but was unable to reach her. Subsequently, her family reported the incident to the local police station, and police search teams began searching for her in the nearby area. Her body was found with body parts in a bag on January 17, 2022, near the Hazratpur Bridge in Kailaniganj, Bangladesh. Following an investigation by local police, her driver and four other people were detained for murder. They were arrested by the elite anti-crime and counter-terrorism unit of the Bangladesh Police’s Rapid Action Battalion (RAB). In an interview with reporters, the local police stated that during the preliminary investigation,
Injuries found on Lema’s body led to the belief that she may have been murdered by criminals on Sunday, before her body was dumped. Her body was later taken away in a vehicle. We confiscated the car. The body has been sent to Sir Salimulla Medical College Hospital (SSMCH) for autopsy and investigation is ongoing. “
During further interrogation by local police, her husband Shakawat Ali Nobel admitted that he had murdered his wife and that the reason for the murder was marital discord. Later, speaking to police, Lema’s brother said,
Nobel was a drug addict. He often quarreled with my sister. I saw blood in Noble’s car. He was not home from 8 to 10 on Monday morning, and I assume he dumped the body during that time. “
Later, Raima’s sister said in an interview with reporters,
I’m at the police station now; preparations for filing a case are in progress. After the case is over, I will go to Sir Salimullah Medical College Hospital to collect my sister’s body. We have not yet been able to make a decision on whether to convict or not for my brother-in-law’s murder. But we are talking. “
