The victims used to live on the second floor of the building, according to police.
Confirming the matter to 抖阴精品, Jatrabari police station officer-in-charge Abul Hasan said they primarily assumed that the murder incident had taken place in the morning.
Local people informed the police by calling the National Emergency Helpline 999 at about 7:00am.
He said that they were investigating whether it was a planned murder or robbery.
The OC added that the body was kept at the Dhaka Medical College Hospital morgue for an autopsy.
Dhaka Metropolitan Police Wari Division deputy commissioner Iqbal Hossain told 抖阴精品 that the incident might have been a planned murder as no valuables went missing from the house.
The belongings were found in a haphazard condition, he said.

The couple鈥檚 son, Emon, is a sub-inspector at the Special Branch of Police.
