A mystery has arisen over the death of a woman named Farida Begum (45) at Reza Hotel on Cinema Hall Road in Habiganj city. Manager Jalal Miah (35), a resident of Rajnagar area, has sent a case to the court against the alleged husband Abdal Miah (40) of Alapur village of Bahubal upazila. Meanwhile, their more unknown stories have been reported.

Before this, the manager of the hotel and her alleged husband Abdal Mia took Farida to Habiganj Sadar Hospital at 6:30 pm last Friday and the doctor declared her dead. A team of police led by SI Muminul Islam of Sadar police station went to the hospital, prepared the dead body, went to the hotel and started investigation and arrested the managers Jalal Mia and Abdal Mia.

It is known that Abdal Mia of Alapur village of Bahubal upazila rented room number 116 of the hotel last Thursday as husband and wife. However, for mysterious reasons, the name and address were not recorded in the register of the hotel. His body was found lying on the bed in the room yesterday evening and Abdal brought the hotel manager after finding no response. Later they took him to the hospital on TomTom Yoga as he did not regain consciousness despite many efforts. However, there is no information about whether they are husband and wife or not, which further raises the suspicion of the police. The police said that the deceased Farida was a resident of Mymensingh district headquarters. Abdal was verbally married 3/4 months ago.

Locals said that anti-social activities often take place in the residential hotels of the cinema hall area. Police conducted several raids and arrested customers including call girls. There have been many other such incidents in these hotels before. Even after that they allow these illegal activities for the sake of more money.
Investigation revealed that there is a human trafficking syndicate in the cinema hall area including Jalal and Abdal. They are trafficking various women in the name of sending them abroad. The woman was also brought from Mymensingh to be sent abroad. Last Saturday afternoon, the police filed a case against them and sent them to the court. Investigating officer Mominul Islam said that the matter is being investigated secretly and publicly.
