U.K. police probe death of Ethiopian couple

Halifax Today – Police are investigating the deaths of a young mother and father whose bodies were discovered in their Leeds home in northern England. The couple, both aged 28, were discovered at a property in Beeston, on Sunday morning.

West Yorkshire Police were unable to confirm reports the couple were discovered by their 10-year-old daughter.

It is understood the deceased male was found hanged in the hallway of the property. Details of how the woman met her death have not emerged.

A police spokesman said they were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

A spokesman said: “We attended an address on Waverley Garth, Beeston, just after 8am on Sunday to find the bodies of a 28-year-old man and woman.

“We are not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.”

It is understood the deaths are being treated as a “domestic” incident.

A neighbour said the couple came to live in Beeston four years ago.

The couple were originally from Ethiopia but have lived in Holland for the past couple of years and hold Dutch passports, it was reported in the Yorkshire Evening Post.

  1. I heard of it. I mean the girl whose brother is a friend of mine here in the US. It is so sad. I feel so sorry for the daughter. Elias I just LOVE your website. i always visit it and all the time new things. thanks

  2. Dear Real Ethiopians in Europe, North America and Australia,

    Please take care of yourself from the vicious acts that pro Weyanes or Weyanes themselves could inflict upon you. They are quite vicious that they hunt their opponents to death anywhere on earth and it is proved that they invest a lot bunch of tax payers money to silence those they believe are their long term threats to their longevity on power.

    Don’t forget that, after all, TPLF people are traitors

  3. This is a tragedy. we have to understand that life is full of different types of challenges and most of us are not ready to face it. we are leading an artificial life cheating our selves. when the time comes for real challenge, we try to take the short curve-suicide.
    Elias, this issue shall be open to all to participate and assist our brothers and sisters to a better way of understanding that taking his/her own life and those of their beloved is not the end. there are lots of other means to live better longer.

    thank you.

  6. It is puzzling how someone gets in a situation whereby he justifies killing his wife and himself in the end leaving his daughter parentless.

    What kind of situations trigger this kind of harsh and horrific measures?

    Just wondering…….
