Couple found dead at Dinajpur house

A couple was found dead in a house in Dinajpur town on Friday morning, police said.

The deceased are Mojibor Rahman and his wife Suraiya Begum, 55, from the town. They used to work as caretakers in the Munshipara area at advocate Nilufar Rahim's house.

Earlier, suspecting that something went wrong at her house in Dinajpur, Nilufar, who lives in Dhaka, called the national emergency service 999 for help, additional superintendent of police of Dinajpu Mominul Karim said.

Next police found Mujibur hanging from the ceiling in the bedroom and the body of his wife in the kitchen with her throat slit in the morning, he added.

The bodies have been sent to Abdur Rahim Medical College and Hospital morgue for autopsies, the police officer said.

"The cause of the deaths can be confirmed when we get the autopsy reports. We are also investigating whether there was a domestic dispute between the couple," Mominul added.
