This report cost life to the 19-year-old girl from Fenie. This act, reports the BBC, drew attention to others about how weak the victims of sexual harassment are in Bangladesh and how few rights they have.

She had reported that on March 27, this year, the director had called her into his office, and on her way, he had begun to touch her in different parts of the body. She had gone to the police with the help of her family on the day of abuse, Time broadcasts.

In Bangladesh, the less in small towns as Nusra had lived, the report of sexual harassment has consequences. Victims often face prejudice despite considerable harassment.

On March 27, when he went to the police, however, the school principal was arrested, but things got worse for Nusrat. The BBC reports that a group of local students and politicians, some of whom also knew the director, gathered on the street to seek his release. They blamed Nusrat.

The family says that they were concerned about her safety, and some days did not go to school. But on April 6, the day he decided to return to school, the worst happened. Upon arriving in class, someone was suspected of calling Nysret to the highest floor of school where death was waiting for him.

Some who had already been arrested, dressed in burka, were surrounded and asked to withdraw the reported case against the director. She had, in effect, refused and was self - protected, but the group threw the oil into her body and set it on fire.

Police Chief for Investigation Banay Kumar Majumder says the killers had planned for this murder to look like suicide, but it was futile after someone had reported earlier on the case and the girl, who had almost been burned, was saved for a few minutes. He had managed to make a brief statement a few minutes before his tragic death. At the hospital, she had arrived at 80% of her body burned. Unable to be treated there, she was sent to Dacha, but in an ambulance she had changed her life after she survived the wound.

After her death, thousands gathered in the town of Feni for the funeral, reports BBC in Bangladesh.
