Neutral summary
A court in Meherpur, Bangladesh, sentenced Mosharraf Hossain, 35 according to one outlet and 40 according to another, to life imprisonment with hard labour for raping a ninth-grade schoolgirl, and fined him 200,000 taka, with one additional year in prison if the fine is unpaid. Judge Md. Tajul Islam of the Meherpur Child and Women Repression Prevention Tribunal delivered the verdict on Sunday. According to the case records, the rape took place on 8 April 2025 at the girl's home in Meherpur Sadar upazila, when she was alone working there. The girl's mother filed the case at Meherpur Sadar police station after a mobile phone left at the house and the girl's behaviour led to the matter being discovered. The court examined 12 witnesses. Public prosecutor Parvin Sultana represented the state, and advocate Miajan Ali represented the accused.
Where accounts differ. Amar Sangbad gives the accused's age as 40 while Bangla Edition gives 35, and Amar Sangbad says the case came to light through a phone left at the house and the girl's behaviour, whereas Bangla Edition says the mother heard a ringtone and questioned the girl.

About this method
Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.
What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.
Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
