A Dhaka court today (May 10) sentenced a student of Begum Badrunnesa Govt Girls' College to two years and seven months of jail in a case filed under Digital Security Act (DSA).
 
Judge AM Zulfikar Hayat of Dhaka Cyber Tribunal passed the order in presence of the convict Nusrat Jahan.
 
However, today was fixed for framing charges in the case and the accused was produced before the court for that. During the passing of indictment order, the accused pleaded guilty and offered unconditional apology. 

Later, the tribunal convicted her and sentenced her to the term she suffered since her arrest in the case.
 
Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) arrested Nusrat on November 6, 2020, for making derogatory remarks on Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and making an offensive post on Facebook in this regard. The case was filed later with Darus Salam Police Station.
