Her first janaza is set to be held in Tampa at 2:00pm on Wednesday (May 6).

The Bangladesh Embassy in Washington, DC is coordinating the entire process through the Bangladesh Consulate in Miami.

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.
