Model 'commits suicide' in capital
A female model allegedly committed suicide at her rented apartment in the capital's Rupnagar yesterday.
Hours before Sabira Hossain's body was recovered by police, there was a post on Facebook account in her name about her decision to commit suicide.
Informed by neighbours, police recovered the body of the 21-year-old hanging from a ceiling fan around 7:00am from the apartment, Syed Shahid Alam, officer-in-charge of Rupnagar Police Station, told The Daily Star. He added that Sabira had been living in the apartment with her boyfriend Nirjhar Sinha Rounaq and might have killed herself as Nirjhar had been refusing to marry her. Nirjhar, who was detained, said Sabira was putting pressure on him to marry her, the OC added.
Her mother filed a case against Nirjhar accusing him of instigating her suicide. The body was sent to Dhaka Medical College morgue for an autopsy.
