Bodies of father, son recovered from Agargaon home

Two bodies of a father and his son have been recovered by police from a house in the capital's Agargaon on Sunday (7 April).

Sher-E-Bangla Nagar Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Ahad Ali said the bodies of father Moshiur (50), and his son Shahdab (16), were recovered from the second floor of a house Mollapara Road at Taltola in Agargaon yesterday evening (April 7).

One of the bodies was hanging while the other lay on the floor.

The OC said both bodies were brought in police custody and were later sent to Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College and Hospital morgue for autopsy.

They also rescued Sabuj’s daughter in critical condition and sent her to Dhaka Medical College Hospital, he added.

Rubayet Ferdous, ADC of Tejgaon zone of Tejgaon division, said the victim Sabuj was burdened with debt. He left the job years back and invested in different sectors but lost. As a result, he later suffered from depression due to the lack of money.

“It is suspected that he ended his life by hanging his son and daughter. But luckily the girl survived,” added the ADC.

“At the time of the incident, his wife was out of home for private tuition,” he said.
