A student of Barishal University was found dead in her room at a dormitory in Barishal city Wednesday night.
The deceased is Ribna Shahrin, a first-year student of Botany Department and resident of Molla Chhatri Nibas, locally known as Rokeya Hall, near the university.
She is from Pirojpur district.
The university proctor Md Khorshed Alam said that the girl had a conversation with her family members and friends on July 16 and, since then, they failed to reach her over the phone.
At about 11:00pm on Wednesday, the panicked mother and uncle of the girl rushed to the dormitory and found the door of the room closed from inside.
Getting no response from inside the room after a long time, they broke into the door and found Ribna’s body hanging from the ceiling fan.
Barishal Metropolitan Bandar Police Station officer-in-charge AR Mukul, said that they primarily suspected the incident to be a case of suicide.
‘But, the actual reason could be known after autopsy,’ he said.
