Couple killed in Chuadanga

A couple was found dead at their house in Gobindapur village of Chuadanga's Damurhuda on Sunday evening.

The victims are: Yar Ali and his wife Rozina Khatun. Their throats were slit, police said.

Quoting locals, Abdul Khalek, officer-in-charge of Damurhuda Police Station, said Yar and Rozina were last seen Saturday evening.

As nobody had seen then since Sunday morning, neighbours became worried.

Through a window, a neighbour saw the couple's bodies inside the house around 7:00pm on Sunday, the OC said.

On information, police recovered the bodies.

Police suspected that criminals killed the two on Saturday night.

They said Yar, who had two wives, had a feud with his second wife over property.

A case was filed against five unknown people with Damurhuda Police Station.

Police detained five people, including the second wife of Yar and her two brothers, for interrogation.
