Police have recovered two hanging bodies from Pallabi and Darussalam areas in Dhaka.

The dead have been identified as Bilkis Akhter, 26, a garment factory worker, and 'Raju', 30, who worked in a travel agency, reports bdnews24.com.

Law enforcers found Bilkis' body hanging from a beam, with a scarf around her neck, in a ted-shed house in Pallabi's Block-12 on Friday, said Pallabi Police Inspector (Operations) Emranul Islam.

The hanging body of Raju was discovered in a rooftop room of a three-storey residential building in Darussalam on Friday night, according to police.
