They started for Dhaka at 9pm and reached the capital at around 2:30am on Monday.
Moriom said that that Khulna did not seem safe for her mother which is why they came to Dhaka.
Her brother-in-law and younger sister accompanied them.
She said: “We reached Dhaka’s Bashundhara safely at night. I took my mother to a doctor on Monday. Her treatment is a priority now.”
“In the entire scenario, if my mother was at fault, we will fix it. But my mother is right. I am not worried about the land dispute at the moment,” she added and said her mother’s safety was a priority now.
On Sunday, Rahima Begum told police that four people abducted her on August 27, by holding a napkin to her nose which made her senseless.
She said that after a few days, her abductors gave her Tk1,000 and put her on a bus bound for Maksudpur where she stayed with relatives for a while.
On September 17, she started staying at the house of Kuddus, a resident of Faridpur’s Boalmari union, from where she was rescued on Saturday.
She was residing in Boalmari’s Syedpur, a local youth informed a local representative as the matter of her being missing went viral on social media.
The representative then informed a councilor who then called the police, he added.
Khulna’s 52-year-old Rahima had been missing for the last 29 days and police traced her down in Faridpur on Saturday night.
She was reported missing by her family soon after her disappearance and police said she had been voluntarily hiding at an old tenant’s house for the last seven to 10 days.
On August 27, at 10pm Rahima allegedly went missing while fetching water near her home in the Banikpara area.
Her children reportedly found her sandals, scarf and the pitcher she was carrying from the spot and reported it to the police.
As many as six people were arrested over the incident.
However, police suspect that she had left her home due to some family dispute over land.
She had been hiding at the residence of Kuddus Molla who used to live in Rahima Begum’s house on rent.
She recently had some disagreement with her second husband over various family matters, and left her home, according to police
On August 17, she went to Kuddus Molla’s house and stayed there. She also told the family that she had been traveling to different cities.
Police also said that Rahima had been changing her location constantly and hence it was difficult to track her down.
On Thursday, Rahima was presumed dead by her daughter Moriom Mannan.
"I have just found my mother's body," Moriom Mannan, daughter of Rahima Begum, wrote in a Facebook post.
However, the Police Bureau of Investigation (PBI), Khulna's Daulatpur police station and Mymensingh police could not confirm the matter.
Moriom told the investigation officer she identified her mother's body by scrutinizing a photograph of the clothes she was wearing.
She also told Dhaka Tribune that they used to live in a rented house as her mother had a land dispute with some neighbours in Moheshhwerpasha area of Daulatpur.
She had filed a case in this regard, Moriom said adding that as it was getting difficult for her to live in her own house in Mohesshwerpasha, she rented a house in Banikpara.
Moriom said their family came under attack after lodging the case repeatedly.
The daughter said her mother received life threats and the goons also threatened to rape her younger daughter, Moriom’s sister.
As a result, her mother filed another case with Daulatpur police station.
