In the wake of secret killings one after another across the country, the police on Tuesday recovered the decomposed body of a former airhostess from her residence at West Rajabazar in capital city Dhaka.
The victim was identified as Humaira Zahan Chowdhury, 35. She was a former flight attendant of Qatar Airways, police said.
Local sources said the victim was a divorcee. She had been staying single in that house since separation from her husband in 2008.
Police suspected that she was killed three to four days ago. Police also said they have got information about frequent visits of her male friends in the house.
When contacted, Officer-in-Charge of Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station GG Biswas said, “Getting information from the neighbours, we recovered the victim’s decomposed body from her second floor flat of a six-storey building at 44/8 West Rajabazar at about 4:00pm.”
The neibours phoned to police station after they got bad smell that coming out of the flat where Humaira had been living. After hectic effort for half-an hour, a team of police recovered the body by breaking open the door of the flat.
“The door was locked from inside. Initially, we didn’t find any mark of injury in victim’s body. A few drops of blood were found dried at the nostrils. We’ve launched an intensive investigation to know the real reason behind the death. The body was sent to Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH) morgue for post mortem,” the OC said. About the process of investigation, Inspector [Investigation] of Sher-e-Bangla Nagar Police Station Sabbir Ahmed said they will wait for the post mortem report. “The reason behind the death will be cleared after getting the autopsy report.”
Apart from local police station, different investigation teams of law enforcement agencies, including Crime Scene Unit of Criminal Investigation Department [CID], homicide squad of Rapid Action Battalion [RAB] and Detective Branch [DB] went to the spot to collect evidence.
Meanwhile, the recovery of decomposed body of a female flight attendant from her residence created high sensation among the residents of the capital when ‘target killings and planned murders’ have been threatening normal civic life in recent days.
Several persons, including Rajshahi University teacher, Chief Jail Guard of Kashimpur High Security Prison and ex-official of US embassy in Dhaka, were killed in the last few days by the professional killers in planned way.
In every case, the killers managed to accomplish their assignments by dodging security surveillance of police and other law enforcement agencies.
