Mother finds daughter, son murdered at home
Police have recovered decapitated bodies of two siblings from a house in Brahmanbaria's Bancharampur upazila, five hours after they went missing.
The bodies of the 14 and 10 year sister and brother were found from under two separate cots in their house at Solimabad village under Bancharampur upazila around 10pm on Monday.
The deceased were identified as Shipa Akhter, 14 and Kamrul Hasan, 10, children of a Saudi returnee Kamal Mia of the village.
Shipa was an eighth-grader student of Bancharampur Girls High School and Kamrul was a fifth-grader student of Salimabad Government Primary School.
According to police and locals, after the boy went missing, his mother Hasina Akhter went to look for him, while leaving his sister alone in the house.
Their father was also out of the house at that time.
After she returned home, both of the siblings were missing. Later, she found their bodies from under two separate cots at the house. Seeing both her children covered in blood, Hasina screamed and fainted. Learning about the matter, locals went to the scene and informed police.
On information, police came to the spot around 10:00pm and recovered their bodies.
Moqbul Hossain, assistant superintendent of police (ASP) of Nabinagar circle, told The Daily Star that they were investigating the case and primarily suspected that close relatives of the deceased might be involved in the killings.
However, it is being investigated why and how this murder was organised.
The bodies of the deceased were sent to Brahmanbaria General Hospital morgue for autopsies, he added.
