The Rise of Rosu Khan

Rosu Khan was a resident of the Khan family home in Modna village under Chandpur Sadar upazila. From an early age, he became known locally as a petty thief. Due to his worsening behavior, villagers eventually forced him to leave his home.

He later took shelter in Tongi, Gazipur. There, he became involved in theft, robbery, hired muscle work, and other criminal activities, while also forming relationships with several women.

According to his own statement, after being publicly beaten when caught while involved in a relationship with a female garment worker in Tongi, Rosu vowed to kill 101 women and then seek repentance at a shrine. However, before he could carry out that plan, he was arrested by police in connection with the theft of a mosque ceiling fan.
