3 of a family found dead in city
The bodies of three members of a family were recovered from a one-storey house in the capital’s Uttarkhan yesterday.
The victims are Jahanara Khatun, 48, her son Mohik Hasan Rochi, 27, and her daughter Tasfia Sultana Meem, 20. Jahanara’s husband died in 2006.
Uttarkhan Police Station’s Officer-in-Charge Helal Uddin said neighbours informed police of a foul odour coming from the house the victims had rented and had found its door locked from inside.
Police then reached the spot and broke down the door.
“Mohik’s body was on the floor, while the other bodies were on the bed,” said the officer, adding that they also recovered a blood-stained kitchen machete from the scene.
