Double Homicides & Gang Rape by Terrorists

These are two very recent stories that came out. The first one is about two terrorists, one a Muslim by name and the other a Hindu by name, uniting for one purpose: to turn a girl into an orphan by killing both her parents. The second one is about a poor girl who was gang raped, while the neighbours were all aware of her screams during the incident.
I will let you decide which is a greater act of terrorism.

First incident
One of the terrorists proposed marriage to the victim's parents for their daughter, but due to the criminal reputation of the terrorist, the parents duly refused his proposal. It happened in the capital city of Bangladesh, and the parents had even made arrangements for their daughter to flee off to Malaysia in an effort to save her from the terrorist. Read here in Bengali.

Murderers are sadistic in general, but what is even more horrific is the way they commit such murders and the mentality they have. These terrorists, while killing both the mother and the father, told the elder daughter (the elder sister of the family, who was present during the act of murder) as a solemn mode of confirmation, "We have left your mother and father dead, now stay alone."

I personally don't think even an ounce of humanity is left in these terrorists. I would leave the Words of our Lord for such terrorists when He said (as translated), "“And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein; and the Wrath and the Curse of Allaah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him
[Quran, Chapter 4: al-Nisaa, Verse 93]

Maybe it's of no use preaching to braindeads, which is why I'll expound on what is the prescribed punishment for these terrorists later, God willing.

Second incident
The story is as follows: the poor girl lives with another girl in a slum and the local drug addicts have been bothering her for some time and on the day of incident, they made an attempt to rape her but the girl strongly defended herself with a dagger-like knife (locally called 'boti') which prompted the addicted youths to threaten her and leave.
Following that, she and the other girl she lived with felt very insecure and went to the neighbour's house for shelter. (In case you're wondering, in places like that and situations like these, the victim does not have access to security forces and the local police are sometimes corrupt enough to rape an orphan-girl themselves.)

What happened after that is tragic. During dinner time, the neighbour liaised with the youths to bring them over and this time, betrayed by the neighbouring family, she could not defend herself. The scums dragged her in another room, gang raped her and left. The number of rapists probably were more than 10 (yes, ten!) and there were loud screams initially that the entire neighbourhood could listen, but nobody did anything to save her, until the screams disappeared to silence.

I don't really have much to say on this incident. One of the readers of the news commented that he cried just reading the news and another commented the entire neighbourhood are to blame and should be hanged for failing to provide security to the girl.

I'd again leave off with the Verse of our Lord for such people:
"The recompense of those who wage war against Allaah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off from opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter"
[Quran, Chapter 5: al-Maaidah, Verse 33]
