The Majhirghat Naval Police have recovered the dismembered, unidentified body of a man from the Padma River in Jajira, Shariatpur. The body was found without a head, both arms, and both legs.

The body was recovered around 8:00 PM on Tuesday (November 10) from the bank of the Padma River in the Pailan Mollarkandi area, under the jurisdiction of the Padma Bridge South Police Station.

According to police and local sources, locals spotted a floating body in the Padma River on Tuesday evening and subsequently informed the Majhirghat Naval Police outpost.

On information, a team from the naval police rushed to the scene and recovered the body from the riverbank. The recovered body was missing its head, both arms, and both legs.

Due to the body being in a semi-decomposed state, it was not immediately possible to identify the person.
