USF doctoral student Zamil Limon found dead; roommate Hisham Abugharbieh charged with two counts of murder in disappearance of two Bangladeshi students
Hisham Abugharbieh, 26, was charged with two counts of first-degree premeditated murder in the deaths of University of South Florida doctoral students Zamil Limon and Nahida Bristy, both 27, who disappeared on April 16. Limon's remains were found on the Howard Frankland Bridge in Tampa on Friday; Bristy has not yet been found and a search near the bridge continues. Abugharbieh was initially arrested Friday after barricading himself inside his family's home following a domestic violence call, and later faced upgraded murder charges Saturday.
