Bodies of three family members were recovered from a flat in Tarash municipality of Sirajganj last night.
The deceased Bikash Sarkar, 45, his wife Swarna Sarkar, 40, and their 15-year-old daughter Tushi Sarkar, were residents of Bouttala area.
Bikash, a businessman, was the younger brother of Awami League’s Tarash upazila unit Vice President Prokash Sarkar.
Though Bikash had no post in the local Awami League unit, he was an active supporter of the party.
Quoting neighbours, Prokash said the door of Bikash’s flat had remained closed since Sunday morning.
Though relatives have been calling the couple for the past two days, they didn’t pick up, he said, adding that he finally went to the flat and found the door shut and received no response from inside despite repeated knocks.
Later, he informed the local police station about the matter. Police recovered the bodies of the couple and their daughter from the flat.
