BIRATNAGAR: A husband and wife fell victim to a vicious attack within the confines of their home in Belbari Municipality-1 of Morang.
According to DSP Ranjan Kumar Dahal, spokesperson of District Police Office Morang, initial investigations reveal a harrowing sequence of events.
It appears that 60-year-old Bam Bahadur Limbu took his own life after perpetrating a fatal assault on his wife, 45-year-old Geeta Limbu.
“At approximately 1:50 am, Geeta’s lifeless body was discovered bearing wounds inflicted by a sharp weapon, while her husband Bam Bahadur was found critically injured with a deep neck laceration,” stated DSP Dahal.
“Despite efforts, he succumbed to his injuries during treatment at Nobel Hospital in Biratnagar.”
The tragedy, fueled by simmering familial discord, sheds light on a troubled past.
“Instances of domestic strife were not uncommon in their household,” DSP Dahal stated.
Preliminary indications suggest Bam Bahadur resorted to suicide following the heinous act, police said.
This was the couple’s second marriage, with both individuals hailing from Belbari-1.
“They eked out a living through manual labor, residing in a modest dwelling,” DSP Dahal disclosed.
Additionally, they are survived by their minor son, who has been secured and is unharmed, according to the police.
Efforts are underway to reach out to the couple’s respective families.
