Female student found hanging at husband's house in Keraniganj
A master's student was found hanging at her husband's house in the Hasnabad area of South Keraniganj on the outskirts of the capital on Tuesday.
The deceased was identified as Asia Akter Mim, 26, a first-year master's student at Siddheshwari University College in the capital.
Victim’s husband Imamul Islam, who owns a rickshaw garage, said they married about a month ago. He said he had been away from home overseeing construction work on a new house and returned in the afternoon.
Failing to find his wife downstairs, he went to the upper floor where he found a room locked from the inside.
Receiving no response despite repeated calls, he broke open the door and found her hanging from the ceiling fan around 5:00pm, Imamul said.
She was rushed to the emergency department of Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) around 6pm, where doctors declared her dead, reports UNB.
Inspector Md Faruk, in-charge of the DMCH police camp, said the body has been kept at the hospital morgue for an autopsy.
Police said they were looking into the incident.
