While the investigation was underway on Thursday, a dead body was recovered which was identified as that of the victim. The search of the police led to the arrest of two youngsters of the same age group as that of the victim. One was his classmate while the other was a school dropout, told the cops.

The victim was having an affair with a girl from his class. One of the accused, who was a close friend of the victim, knew about the affair and he also shared the contact number of the girl with other boys of the class. Due to this, the girl started receiving objectionable calls and messages from a number of boys of the class, informed the ASP adding that the girl then told the victim about this which led to a fight between the victim and his classmate. Later on November 11, the accused called the victim outside his house to say sorry but he had different intentions.

With the help of his another friend, the accused kidnapped the victim and on Thursday they murdered him. “They strangulated him and then slit his throat with a sharp knife which is used by farmers,” said police.
