Rafida Ahmed Bonya, widow of slain blogger-writer Avijit Roy, today released a statement following the verdict in the murder case, in which she wrote, "Simply prosecuting a few foot-soldiers -- and ignoring the rise and roots of extremism -- does not mean justice for Avi's death, nor for the deaths of the 'bloggers, publishers and homosexuals' before and after him as part of the serial killing."
Bonya uploaded the statement on her verified Facebook profile. She was injured in the attack that killed her husband in 2015.
