Police in Fatullah, Narayanganj, arrested a woman on Monday morning for allegedly killing her husband. The incident occurred around 10:30 a.m. in the Mirzabari Mor area of West Delpara under Kutubpur Union. Law enforcement recovered a machete and a knife believed to have been used in the killing. The victim, Jahangir Alam, 42, was from Dhalkhanagar Lane in Old Dhaka, while the arrested woman, Farzana Akter Munni, is the daughter of Ayub Ali from West Delpara.

According to local accounts, this was Munni’s second marriage. She divorced her first husband about five years ago and later married Jahangir Alam, with whom she had a one-and-a-half-year-old son. Police said the couple had long-standing marital conflicts. Preliminary investigation suggests Munni mixed sleeping pills into her husband’s food on Sunday night, rendering him unconscious before attacking him with a machete and knife the following morning.

Police recovered the body and sent it to Narayanganj General Hospital morgue. A murder case is being prepared, and further legal proceedings are underway.
