Police are looking for a man who has been missing since his wife’s body was found in Chattogram’s Halishahar.
Mohammad Jamin, a Bhangari businessman, is believed to have slaughtered his wife Rabeya Khatun, 50, at their rented house on Saturday evening.
Police said they suspect a marital feud led to the murder.
Locals said Rabeya and her husband Jamin used to live in a rented tin shed house on Road-4 of the Panir Tank area of the city.
Jamin had an altercation with his wife around 7:30pm. At one stage, Jamin slit Rabeya’s throat with a sharp weapon and fled.
Rabeya was able to make it to the street outside her home with her slit-throat.
Although locals took her to a local hospital, she succumbed to her injuries there.
“We’re trying to find out the reason behind this murder and arrest the suspect,” said Md Zahir Uddin, officer-in-charge of Halishahar police station.
A murder case will be lodged in this regard, added the OC.
