A female garment worker was found dead at her house at Bagpara in the municipality area of Savar, on the outskirts of the capital, on Saturday morning.

The deceased is Shefali Begum, believed to be 23, a resident of the area, reported UNB.

Finding Shefali’s presence nowhere, neighbours peeped into her room through its window only to see her body lying on the bed and her minor daughter crying at about 9:00am.

On information, police rushed in and recovered the body of Shefali at about 10:00am.

The body bore injury marks on the neck, said Savar Police station second officer Mazharul Islam.

Police suspected that Shefali’s husband might have strangled her over family feud.
