The body was sent to Natore Sadar hospital for autopsy after recovery this morning. However, the cause of her death is yet to be confirmed.
Recently, the 40-year-old teacher made headlines after her relationship with Md Mamun Hossain, 22, became public, more than six months after they got married.
On 24 June 2021, Khairun met Mamun, a 2nd-year degree student of NS Government College in Natore, on social media. Mamun is a resident of Patpara village of Gurdaspur upazila. Later, they got married on 12 December.
After their marriage had come to light on 31 July, it quickly became a topic of discussion in both social and mainstream media.
Khairun Nahar has a child from her first marriage, which did not last long due to family feuds.
