Pinu Khan (2 February 1954 – 17 March 2024) was a Bangladesh Awami League politician and a former member of parliament from the reserved women's seats.[1]

Life and career

Pinu Khan was born on 2 February 1954.[2] She was selected to parliament on 5 January 2014 from reserved women's seat-23 as a Bangladesh Awami League candidate.[3] She served as the general secretary of the Mohila Awami League.[4] Khan died on 17 March 2024, at the age of 70.[5]

Controversy

Khan's son, Bakhtiar Alam Rony, fired his licensed gun in a traffic jam in an incident in April 2015. His shooting killed Abdul Hakim, a rickshaw puller, and Yakub Ali, an auto-rickshaw driver. He was interrogated by the Detective Branch over the murders while Pinu denied any involvement of her son.[4][6] He was charged with murder and the case became known as Eskaton Double Murder.[7][8][9][10] On 30 January 2019, a Dhaka court sentenced him to life imprisonment.[11]
