Domestic help killed in Shyampur

Dhaka, June 20 (bdnews24.com) ? A domestic help has been killed in the city's Shyampur area, police said.

The body of Jasmine Akhtar, 15, was recovered early on Monday from Flat-704 of a house at south Dholaipar under Shyampur Police Station, officer in-charge Mia Kutubur Rahman told bdnews24.com.

Jasmine, daughter of Abul Kalam Majhi, hailed from Ramdaspur village in Bhola district. She had been working at the house for about one year, Kutubur said.

Though her body was hanging from a ceiling fan, several marks of injury were evident, he said.

The police officer said it seems to be a murder incident but if the girl was raped before killing would be known only after autopsy, he said.

She had love affairs with a youth, who might be responsible for the murder, he suspects.

The police filed a case under the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act, he added.
