The deceased were identified as Nande Madkami and Nabin Madkami, both residents of Aro Colony in Tamasa panchayat. Police quoting some villagers said that the two, aged above 18 years, were in a relationship, but their families opposed it. The two belonged to a tribal community.

The marriage of the girl had been fixed with another youth a few days ago. However, the two went missing since Tuesday. Their family members and villagers had been searching for them, but to no avail.
