Her burial took place at 12:45 AM on Monday night at Gabura Union under coastal Shyamnagar Upazila, confirmed Shyamnagar Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Shafiul Alam Patwari.

Family sources said her body arrived in Gabura by road from Dhaka around 12:00 AM on Monday, where local relatives had already prepared the grave. Following religious rituals and a Namaz-e-Janaza, she was laid to rest at 12:45 AM.
