An Emirates flight carrying the remains of Bangladeshi PhD student Nahida Sultana Brishty departed from Florida for Dhaka today. 

The flight is scheduled to reach Dhaka at 8:40am tomorrow (May 9), Golam Mortoza, press minister at the Bangladesh Embassy in Washington, shared the information in a Facebook post. 

Emirates flight EK 0220 departed from Orlando International Airport in Florida at 8:50pm local time on Thursday (6:50am on Friday in Bangladesh), with a transit in Dubai. From Dubai, the body will be carried on flight EK 0582. 

The body of Zamil Ahmed Limon, one of the two Bangladeshi students killed, reached Dhaka on May 4 morning. He was buried later that day in Jamalpur. 

Limon and Bristy, both 27-year-old PhD students from Bangladesh at the University of South Florida, disappeared on April 16. Limon was last seen at the off-campus complex where he shared an apartment with murder suspect Hisham Abugharbieh and another roommate. 

Detectives used cellphone location and license plate reader data to track Abugharbieh's car and Limon's phone to a bridge where Limon's body was found on April 24. Limon had numerous stab wounds and appeared to be bound, according to a report filed by prosecutors. 

Authorities later recovered another body from a nearby waterway on April 26, which had been later confirmed as Bristy. The suspect was arrested days after the incident by a SWAT team at his parents' home. Abugharbieh faces two counts of first-degree murder with a weapon along with other charges.
