A 22-year-old BBA second-year student of Dhaka University (DU) killed herself by jumping off the roof of the 16-story building of her home in the capital's Mohammadpur Wednesday, police said.
Zaina Habib, a student of the Department of Accounting and Information Systems, would live in the Japan Garden City of Adabor.
Mujib Ahmed Patwari, assistant commissioner of Mohammadpur Zone Police, said after examining closed-circuit television footage of the roof they found that Zaina had committed suicide.
Zaina went to the top of their apartment building and locked its door around 5pm when it was raining.
At one point, she jumped off the roof, leaving a suicide note, and died on the spot, Mujib said. "Police handed over the body to Zaina's family instead of taking it away for a postmortem as they did not make any complaint about the death."
