Police recovered the blood-stained bodies of two sisters from a flat in West Shewrapara's Shamim Swarani area last night (10 May).

The deceased were identified as Mariam, 60, and her sister Sufia, 50.

Mirpur Model Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Sajjadur Rahman said being informed by locals, a police team rushed to the spot around 8:45pm and found the bodies in the flat on the second-floor a six-storey building.

The bodies were later sent to Shaheed Suhrawardy Medical College Hospital morgue, he said.

"Initially it seems that the victims were killed using a traditional stone grinder and a knife," OC Sajjad added.

He said Mariam's 26-year-old daughter Misti, who lives in the flat and works for a private company, was not at home at the time of the incident.

The building's caretaker has been brought in for questioning.
