Dhaka Medical College Hospital’s Burn Unit senior nurse Nahida Akter Boby, aged 29, was found dead at a rented apartment in the capital’s Chankharpul area on the night of March 5. Police recovered her body hanging from a ceiling fan with a scarf. Investigators said the incident appears to be linked to prolonged domestic abuse, as three handwritten notes left by Nahida describe severe physical and mental torture allegedly inflicted by her husband Ilias and his family members.
In the notes, Nahida accused her husband, mother-in-law, sister-in-law Sumi, and a relative named Shawkat Hossain of driving her to suicide through continuous humiliation and violence. She described being beaten “like a dog” and mentally harassed, while also detailing her husband’s extramarital affairs allegedly supported by his family. Nahida had previously filed a case in 2023 over similar abuse, after which Ilias was jailed but later reconciled with her.
Police said the suicide notes are being verified and efforts are underway to arrest the absconding husband. Nahida’s family is preparing to file a case for abetment of suicide.
