An 18-year-old college student was allegedly strangled by her husband in Dhaka, Bangladesh, police reported. Sanjida Akhter, also known as Maria, a first-year management student at Lalmatia Mohila College, was found dead in her apartment.

Her husband, 21-year-old Foodpanda delivery rider Saiful Islam, was arrested shortly after the incident. Sanjida's family became concerned when she did not answer repeated phone calls. When they contacted Saiful, he directed them to her apartment, where they found her unconscious on the kitchen balcony with marks around her neck.

Police recovered Sanjida's body, which had a jute rope around the neck, and sent it to Dhaka Medical College morgue for an autopsy. Deputy Commissioner Harun-Or-Rashid stated that Saiful Islam confessed to killing his wife during initial interrogation, facilitated by technological surveillance. The couple had been married for about a year, and investigators suspect ongoing marital disputes involving Saiful's parents may have contributed to the killing.

Sanjida's brother, Md Chan Mia, filed a murder case, and Saiful Islam has been presented before a court. In a separate incident, the body of an unidentified woman was found hanging in an abandoned house in Banglamotor, with police investigating the cause of death, suspected to be suicide.
