On Tuesday (22nd July), the dead body of a 20-year-old Hindu woman named Arpita Saha was recovered from a fish pond in Chitalmari upazila in Bagerhat district of Bangladesh.
According to reports, the victim had been missing since Monday (21st July). Arpita is the daughter of a saree trader named Anand Saha.
She was reportedly ‘mentally unstable’ and had frequent epileptic fits. The deceased therefore used to stay at her father’s house, despite being married a year ago.
On Tuesday (22nd July), Arpita’s body was found floating in the fish pond of one man named Paritosh Bala. He notified the police immediately, who then recovered the body of the deceased.
Following the identification of the dead body, the police registered a case of ‘accidental death.’
