Two women were found dead in Rejur Mor and Palapara areas, respectively, of Natore's Baraigram upazila on Wednesday morning, police said.

The deceased were identified as Rosena Khatun, 50, wife of Moslem Uddin of the Mahishbhanga area, and Nileema Kundu, 70.

Locals spotted the body of Rosena along Bonpara-Hatikumrul Road in the Rejur Mor area of the upazila in the morning and informed police.

"We recovered the body and sent it for an autopsy," said Abu Siddique, officer-in-charge of Baraigram Police Station.

The body of the elderly woman was fished out of a pond in the Palapara area of Natore this morning, police said.

Nileema left the house early in the morning, said family members, adding that she might have drowned while taking bath in the pond.
