A woman was killed as her husband allegedly slit her throat with a razor following a family dispute in Narayanganj's Bandar upazila on Wednesday evening.
The deceased was identified as Sathi, 38, wife of Jony Shil of the Jhautala area in the upazila.
According to locals, the couple, originally from the Bihari community, had been living in a rented house in the area for about four years. Jony ran a barbershop at a local market.
Other tenants of the building said the couple frequently quarrelled. On Wednesday evening, residents noticed blood near the door of their room and informed police, reports UNB.
Police later entered the room and recovered Sathi’s throat-slit body around 7:30pm, said Officer-in-Charge (OC) of Bandar Police Station Golam Moktar Ashraf Uddin.
He said they launched a drive to arrest the accused, who went into hiding after the incident.
