A suspected murder-suicide identified as Farhan has killed his six members in suburban Dallas, after two brothers made a pact to kill their relatives and then themselves, commits suicide. Farhan, aged 19, detailed the deadly plan in a rambling six-page suicide note that was posted online, in which he talked at length about his years-long battle with depression and self-harm, expressed anger at the latter seasons of the TV sitcom The Office, and ranted about inadequate gun control in the US. Police Officers entered the residence and found six people dead from gunshot wounds, including two brothers, Farhan’s twin sister Farbin, their parents and a grandmother. The family were immigrants from Bangladesh and the local police department had no prior interactions with them. It is believed that the massacre was carried out by the two brothers, identified by a family friend as 19-year-old Farhan Towhid and 21-year-old Tanvir Towhid, as CBS DFW first reported. Apparently two brothers made an agreement to commit suicide and ended up taking the entire family with them,’ said Allen police Sgt. Jon Felty. The killing claimed the lives of Farhan’s twin sister Farbin Towhid, their parents Iren and Towhidul Islam, and a grandmother, 77-year-old Altafun Nessa. She was visiting from Bangladesh, and was set to go return home next month. Farbin was a talented artist, who had a full scholarship to New York University, FOX 4 reported. Police confirmed that Farhan, formerly a computer science student at the University of Texas at Austin, linked his lengthy suicide letter from his Instagram. The letter, which was published through Google Docs and reviewed by DailyMail.com, begins with the words: ‘Hey everyone. I killed myself and my family. If I’m going to die, I might as well get some attention.’ DON'T MISS: I had miscarriage with twins – Banky W’s wife, Adesuwa He goes on to say that he was diagnosed with depression in the ninth grade, and describes in graphic detail cutting himself with school scissors and knives, until he hit a ‘breaking point’ and told his father about his struggle. Farhan said he was put on medication, received therapy, found a good group of friends and became popular. ‘My life was perfect, but that didn’t change the fact that I was depressed,’ he writes. ‘I would still have the urges to cut myself or end up crying myself to sleep. I tried doubling my medication which worked, but only temporarily. Every solution was always temporary.’ After experiencing a breakdown earlier this year and dropping out of college, Farhan said he found himself spending much of his time watching The Office with his older brother, who he said also suffered from crippling depression, despite being a ‘genius.’ Farhan then launches into a bizarre rant about how the comedy series should have ended after the seventh season, when the character of Michael Scott, as played by Steve Carrell, exited the show, instead of continuing on for two more seasons. Farhan writes that he and his brother continued watching The Office until February 21, when his sibling walked into his room with a proposition: ‘if we can’t fix everything in a year, we’ll kill ourselves and our family.’ Farhan explains his decision to kill his family before committing suicide by saying that were his loved ones to go on living without him, ‘they would be miserable. They would spend the rest of their lives feeling guilt, despair, and a multitude of other adjectives that mean sad. ‘Instead of having to deal with the aftermath of my suicide, I could just do them a favor and take them with me. None of us would ever have to feel sad ever again.’ He added: ‘I love my family. I genuinely do. And that’s exactly why I decided to kill them.’ Farhan writes that the plan he and his brother hatched was simple: ‘We get two guns. I take one and shoot my sister and grandma, while my brother kills our parents with the other. Then we take ourselves out.’ He notes that because ‘gun control in the US is a joke,’ all it took for his brother to get the firearms was to go to a store and sign some forms. https://abovenaija.com/2021/04/06/i-killed-my-family-members-because-i-love-them-19-year-old-boy-photos/

If there's any nation where they value and give more importance to self desires rather than submitting to systems that's influenced by a higher form of knowledge and binds them to laws to keep them aright and guides them to what's right and away from what's wrong, then you should expect things like this from them. They limit themselves to their own mental dispositions which is very limited hence their impression about life is somewhat shallow and lagging so you find them taking drastic or dangerous measures in matters that should be dealt with more properly. I know I may not have made myself very clear. Don't worry. God willing, you'll understand better in the future. Anyways, his case is over to God now. Oh Lord, be the judge. .......... By the way, please check my signature. Pleeeeeeeeaaaassse!! It's about my business. Help me. Thanks. 3 Likes |

I don't get it. Is it that a greater number of Americans are mentally deranged? If you want to die, why not die alone? The American Government needs to go back to the drawing board and fix this excessive and uncontrollable use of arms. It has gotten out of hand. 1 Like |

U.S. and guns. Their reasons for allowing easy access to guns is not working. Robbery and other crimes are still being perpetrated and psychos are using guns to unleash mayhem at the slightest opportunity. The only cogent reason they have is for self protection but people are abusing it. They need to look into the issue of acquisition of arms afterall they have a very good security system and should be able to protect their citizens and not allow them to have access to guns. |
