After over three years, the family of a murdered Bangladeshi migrant worker is to get Tk64,26,000 in compensation, according to a letter from Bangladesh embassy in Kuwait.
Chan Mia, who was from Manikganj, was killed by Nashmi Abbas Saleh Al-Otaibi on March 8, 2011, in Kuwait.
The letter, signed by the embassy’s first secretary KM Ali Reza, said the embassy had collected the money from the convict’s family and deposited it to the mission’s compensation account. The victim’s family will now have to send a pardon letter to get the money.
KM Ali Reza attributed the delay in settling the case to legal proceedings.
