Voice 9, Dhaka Bureau: The dead bodies of a husband and wife were discovered at a residence on Titas Road in East Rampura, the capital. Due to financial issues, the police first assumed that the couple committed suicide by hanging themselves from the same fan. The victims were discovered at 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday in a tin-shed home on East Rampura Titas Road.
The deceased were identified as Jewel, 28, and
his wife, Nasrin Akter, 22. Relatives claimed that both of them committed
suicide by hanging themselves. Jewel's home is in Kurigram. His father's name
is Azadur Khandaker. And Nasreen's house is in Nikli Upazila of Kishoreganj.
His father's name is Siddiqur Rahman.
Rafiqul Islam, officer-in-charge of Rampura
Police Station, said the bodies of the husband and wife were recovered from the
tin shed house on East Rampura Titas Road around 3:30 a.m. Later, the body was
sent to the Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) morgue for autopsy. However,
the incident is being investigated further. The cause of death will be
confirmed after the post-mortem.
Jewel and Nasreen married three and a half years
ago, according to relatives. They had one child, who died around 9–10 months
ago.
Titu Mia, Nasreen's elder brother, stated that
Jewel and Nasrin had been living in a leased property on Titas Road in East
Rampura for the last 8–9 months. Titu Mia also resides in the residence.
On Tuesday, he stated that he got home from work
at about 1:45 a.m. He then inquired of his wife and daughter whether they had
seen Nasreen and Jewel open their room door since lunchtime. He didn't even
notice she was cooking. Titu Mia then summoned them.
When no one responded, they cracked the door to
their room through the landlord. He then walked inside and discovered Jewel and
Nasreen hanging from the neck by two veils connected to a fan. They quickly
called the police. Police arrived at the scene at 3:30 a.m. The CID crew then
left. They removed the body from the hanging position and transported it to the
mortuary.
