Showing the handmade card she made for her elder sister on her 17th birthday on October 9 last year, eight-year-old Reana Asif (not her real name), the younger sister of an English-medium school student in Dhanmondi who died after rape, said, I will not spare the scoundrel who killed my sister. I want justice.
The card, kept in a paper bag on her bookshelf, reads, Apu, you are the best sister in the world and I love you.
Reana would frequently make cards and handmade gift items for her elder sister, with a small and simple note to express her love. Sometimes, the gift was a box of earrings, which their mother would buy for them, or sometimes a funny sketch of her sister.
