Death of Chinese National: Wife files murder case
Motive behind the murder of the Chinese national Jianhui Gao -- whose body was found in Banani on Wednesday -- remains a mystery, with investigators making little progress.
“We found a black mark on his neck, but are yet to find any clue about the killers,” Sudip Chakrabarty, deputy commissioner (Gulshan) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police, told this newspaper yesterday.
Doctors conducted autopsy of Gao at Dhaka Medical College morgue yesterday. He was strangulated to death, said sources at the morgue.
Meanwhile, victim’s wife Zhang Shu Hong filed a murder case with Banani Police Station against unnamed accused, after flying in from China yesterday.
“Gao always had an interpreter with him, because he did not speak English. That is why he used to avoid meeting people unless necessary,” he said.
Police said Gao’s business partner is currently in China.She is set to arrive in Dhaka today, he added.
There was Tk 5 lakh cash and a valuable ring in his flat but the killer did not touch anything from there, said police sources.
No arrests have been made, but police are interrogating six people detained on Wednesday, said Sudip.
Police’s detective branch is also conducting a shadow investigation into the murder.
