Download PDF The diaries of the nine people of a family who apparently died in a suicide pact Wednesday suggest that their belief in rebirth on earth might have driven them to go for such an awful act.
“‘Adam is the best and human being is above all. We are declaring that we must return to the earth after death,” Additional Police Superintendent (ASP) Akhtaruzzaman quoted lines from a diary of one of those who ended it all, throwing themselves under an express train at Kashore, on the fringe of Mymensingh town.
The dead were identified as Hena Begum, 60, wife of late Anwar Hossain, their daughters Mobi, 40, Aktari Begum, 35, Murshida, 30, and Shabnam, 10, sons Arif, 26,and Rahat, 18, and Mobi’s son Mollah, 8 and daughter Mariam, 10.
One of the four diaries recovered from the house said that Hena’s husband Anwar Hossain Fakir, who died in 2000, used to visit the house every night after their prayers, and called on them to meet him soon where eternal peace prevails, the ASP told the journalists.
“On the planet, we are the only family that is independent and self-dependent,” reads the diary.
Locals and police believe that such a “bizarre train of thoughts” might have influenced the family to choose to die the way they did.
Superintendent of Police in Mymensingh Rafiqul Islam said they have found books on science, economics, business administration, and novels in the house, but nothing on religion.
Rafiqul Alam Dulal, 70, a cousin of Hena, told the journalists that the family became estranged from its relatives immediately after Anwar Fakir had died. “We weren’t even allowed to enter their house,” he said.
Lima, a student of Ananda Mohan College and a neighbour of the Fakir family, said they would rarely come out of their house and whenever they had to, they would move together and speak to none.
Describing the incident as the most horrible he has ever seen, Banchu Ranjan Sarker, a construction worker who was at the spot, said that all the nine were sitting on the railway track and they did not waver in the face of deafening whistles from the train.
Banchu passed out as soon as the train thundered by, crushing them like an empty can.
Meanwhile, the post mortem of the bodies was done at the morgue of Mymensingh Medical College Hospital (MMCH) yesterday.
Earlier, railway police recovered the bodies from Kashore Itakhola and sent those to MMCH for autopsies.
An unnatural death case was filed with Jamalpur Railway Police Station in this connection.
Meanwhile, police sealed off the house of Anwar Hossain Fakir following orders from First Class Magistrate and Senior Assistant Commissioner ASM Mustafizur Rahman.
According to police, none came to receive the bodies till yesterday afternoon. If the bodies are not received by any of their relatives, those will be handed over to local municipality for burial.
If the municipality does not take the responsibility, they will seek an alternative measure.

Oh you who believe in Oneness of AllAH ,Islam &
all Books sent to Mankind :Tourit, Jbur,Ingil &
Furkan” Must remember there is no reincarnation,
124,ooo Prophets came in to this globe
but no one returned . If there was reincarnation,
All prophets would have come back with the solid
proof of rebirth.
We as a Muslim believe that Prophet ISA(PBUH)
will come back to this earth, its not re incarnation, Its not a new birth of him,He was bodily taken away from this earth & Holy Quran
Vouches for the same.
Once people depart from this earth, will sleep in their grave until the day of Judgement.
No one will have cloths on their body, they will appear naked before the LORD the ALMIGHTY ALLAH!
Yet no one will have time to look at the other. all will be drowned on selfsafety.only ALLAH alone knows what will be the condition there.
Read Sura “Wakia” & know the meaning, there will be groups of people Right & Left.Right side will have mercy from ALLAH.Left side will be in the hell.May ALLAH help us from the fire of Hell.
What a sheer Luxury we enjoy in Bangladesh,
Have a little wealth, We donot pray, First thing we hear in the morning Harmonium play rather than the Sound of Quran Karim, have a liitle education, have one suit & tie, what a grand life, go to Bar ,enjoy wine & women or join the
Hell fun House of the son of Ziaur Rahman.
Mercy will not touch you, if you do not have HOLY Quran Reading in your House, If you cannot read atleast listen to Radio or TV containing Quran Reading.
Donot make your House Picturedom with only worldly Books , devil will appear in any form & devour you all.Let us forget Evil habits, let us be true Muslim,not terrorists.
Let us perform Namaz & Ruza & then our children will learn.
Like Charity education begins at home not in School & Colleges, you mishave with your Mother,
Father, Wife or Husband, children will learn the habits & culture , abuse of your house.
Let it be a lesson to us all ,that unless we observe Islamic habits perils will follow as it followed to all dishonest corrupted leaders.
Let us be happy with what ever ALLAH provides
& be grateful to ALLAH for the safety our eyes ,ears,Hands & feet , let us share our food with our poorer neighbours be they Hindu, Christians, Jews or others.
Thanking you,
B.Ahmed
