They have been identified as Azmat Ali, 45, a fish trader, and Farzana Begum, 36, a caretaker in an NGO. Called in by the couple's 15-year-old child on Friday, police broke into their room and found Azmat hanging from the ceiling while Farzana lay dead on the floor. The child informed police that his parents had not left their room since Thursday night with no sounds coming from inside, said Deputy Commissioner Rubayet Zaman. The couple had three children together but was said to be having longstanding marital issues. It is likely that Azmat went to his wife on Thursday night to settle some issues before things went awry, he said.
