Another Viqarunnisa girl takes her life
A student of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College committed suicide on Friday at her Mothertek residence in the city just two days after her schoolmate Anamika Bairagi Papri took her life by hanging herself from a ceiling fan.
Mania Sultana Prova, 18, daughter of retired banker Rafiqul Islam and a first year student of the college, hanged herself with a scarf from a ceiling fan at her bedroom between 3:00pm and 9:00pm.
Sub-inspector Proloye Kumar Saha of Sabujbagh Police Station said they rushed to the house following information and recovered the body. Later, they sent it to the Dhaka Medical College Hospital morgue for autopsy.
Police quoting Prova's family said she might have committed suicide due to mental disorder.
Quoting her family, Proloye said Prova got married to an intermediate student, Fahad, while she was student of class nine but their families did not accept the marriage as they were teenagers.
They were forced to divorce each other in June 2009 and since then she had been mentally imbalanced, he said.
Prova's family, however, declined to talk to the reporter.
Earlier on Wednesday afternoon, Papri committed suicide at her Siddheswari residence in the city as her parents did not take her out to Pahela Baishakh programmes.
