Rehana Parveen’s Janaza was held at Dhanmondi Taqwa Mosque after Asr Namaz on Saturday and her body was buried in the family graveyard after Janaza in the second Namaz at North Para Eidgah ground of Shimrail village on Sunday morning.
Rehana Parveen’s late husband Mofizur Rahman was an exemplary model teacher of Jamsherpur High School in Mehari Union of Kasba Upazila. During his career as a teacher, he never took public holiday pay and deposited it in the institution’s poor fund.
Under pressure from the locals, he was elected as the chairman of the Union Parishad in 1992 and won by a huge margin. But three years after taking charge as chairman, he resigned from the post of UP chairman after observing and condemning the activities of other members of the council. Since then his name and reputation spread in the greater Comilla district as an honest man.
