Hundreds of people have turned out to mourn a 20-year-old woman who died after a suspected poisoning in Bangladesh. Samira Islam is the third member of her family to have died after the incident, along with her brother Mahiqul, 16, and father Rafiqul, 51.
Officials say the Cardiff woman died at around 8.30am on Friday, August 5, after she and her family were found unconscious last month following an incident at a flat in the region of Sylhet in the north east of Bangladesh. Police have confirmed the family, from the Riverside area of Cardiff, came to Bangladesh on July 12 and that they moved into the flat where they were found on July 18.
Police say they are now working on the theory their deaths may have been caused by carbon monoxide. Ms Islam's mother Hosne Ara Islam, 40, and brother Sadikul Islam, 21, were both also found unconscious but have survived and have been released from hospital.
