The brother of Nahida S. Bristy, a doctoral student who went missing in the United States, has shared a heart-wrenching statement saying his sister 'is no longer with us.'
A man named Hisham Saleh Abugharbieh is facing charges after his roommate, Zamil Limon, a University of South Florida doctoral student, was found dead.
Abugharbieh was arrested on Friday, April 24, after a domestic violence incident at the residence, law enforcement said.
Limon and Bristy, two doctoral students at the school, were both reported missing, the school's police department said in a statement.
The 27-year-olds from Bangladesh were last seen about a week ago.
Bristy's brother, Zahid Hasan Pranto, said in a Facebook post, 'My sister is no longer with us.'
Abugharbieh is facing charges of domestic violence, simple battery, false imprisonment, tampering with evidence, failure to report a death, and unlawfully holding or moving a dead body.
