Felani Khatun (Шаблон:Lang-bn) was a 15-year-old Bangladeshi girl who was shot and killed by Indian Border Security Force (BSF) on 7 January 2011, along the India-Bangladesh border.[1][2] A photograph showing Felani Khatun's dead body hanging on a border fence made of barbed wire was picked up by international media, and the publication of these photographs evoked international concern.[3] The photo had created an "uproar" in Bangladesh.[4] After a lot of back and forth between different courts within India, the case is still pending for final judgement as (MSM) a human rights activist platform in India has launched a petition in the country's Supreme Court seeking justice and compensation for the killing of Felani Khatun.[5] Lawyer and Human Rights Activist SM Abraham Lincoln who has been the lawyer for Felani Khatun's Family on Bangladesh's side for the last 11 years, believes that after the covid 19 pandemic the process has lost momentum.[6] This Case is significant because of the international attention that it gathered and also paints a vivid picture of the length of struggle that people living in borderline Bangladesh have to go through.
