Two sisters found hanging at home in Sylhet

Two sisters were found hanging from an iron rod on the terrace of their house in the Majumdari area of Sylhet city on Tuesday.

The deceased were identified as Rani Jamidar (33) and Fatema Begum (27), daughters of Kalim Ullah. Police suspect, they committed suicide over a family feud, reports UNB.
