Three brothers of a Natore family died on the same day just hours apart. While two died gasping for air due to Covid-19, the other passed away of a heart attack.
The diseased were identified as Shoriful Islam Pochu, Bablu and Jahangir.
Pochu, the middle brother, lost his battle against coronavirus on Friday dawn at Rajshahi Medical College and Hospital and his elder brother Bablu followed him just an hour later after a heart attack took his life away back home in Natore.
When the mourning members of the family were digging their graves at Garikhana central graveyard, little did they know that their younger brother was about to join them soon.
Jahangir, the youngest of the lot also succumbed to death at 7 pm on Friday evening at the Covid-19 unit of RMCH.
The brothers were proud owners of the well reputed Islamia Hotel of Natore.
They conducted this business together for 40 years and it was only fitting that they were inseparable in death too .
Liton, son of Pochu confirmed this information to UNB.
A shell shocked Liton said,โOur family lost everything within hours, I honestly donโt know how we will overcome this.โ
