Three accused in Sylhet MC College gang rape case gave confessional statements before a Sylhet court on Friday.

Md Ziadur Rahman, the additional chief metropolitan magistrate of Sylhet, recorded the statements of Saifur Rahman, Arjun Laskar and Rabiul Islam. 

Assistant Public Prosecutor Mahfuzur Rahman confirmed the news to The Business Standard today.

Earlier on the day, police produced the three before the court after they completed five days in remand. 

The remand of Tareq and Mahfuzur Rahman Masum, third and sixth accused respectively in the case, will end on Sunday.

On September 25, in the afternoon, a couple from South Surma in Sylhet went to visit MC College. 

Five to six leaders and activists of Chhatra League allegedly grabbed them, brought them to the dormitory, and beat them up.

Later, the prime accused tied up the woman's husband and raped the woman in front of him.

The next day, the victim's husband filed a case against nine people at the city's Shahparan police station, naming six people. All the six accused are Bangladesh Chhatra League activists. 

They are: Saifur Rahman, Mahbubur Rahman Rony, Tarek, Arjun Lankar, Rabiul Islam, and Mahfuzur Rahman. The victim is currently admitted to the OCC centre of Osmani Hospital in Sylhet.

On September 29, the Education Ministry formed a committee to investigate whether there was any negligence of the college authorities in the gang rape incident. The High Court also formed an investigation committee last week to look into the incident.

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan has said that none of those involved in the incident will be spared.
