In a disturbing turn of events in Belawan village, Kaimur district in Bihar, a 23-year-old man met a tragic end due to an alleged love affair on Friday night. His lifeless body, with a slit throat, was discovered at a temple in Sonara village near Belawan the following Saturday morning, as confirmed by local authorities.

The victim, identified as Pankaj Kumar, was said to be romantically involved with a girl from the same village, who had recently tied the knot in Maharashtra.

The grim discovery of his body was made by family members on Saturday morning, as Pankaj failed to return home the previous evening.

Upon receiving news of the incident, the police swiftly responded by arriving at the scene and gathering statements from the victim’s relatives, who demanded justice and refused to allow the body to be moved until action was taken.

After deliberation with higher-ranking officials, the body was transported to Bhabua Sadar Hospital for a post-mortem examination, with assurances of accountability for those responsible.

The victim’s kin were informed of the tragedy by locals around 6 am on Saturday and pointed fingers at the girl’s family for their alleged involvement in the heinous act.

“He departed around 4 pm, purchased groceries, and sent them home with a child. When he didn’t return, we searched for him until midnight, assuming he was with friends,” recounted his paternal aunt.

Bhabua SDPO Shiv Shankar Kumar revealed that the youth’s demise was linked to a romantic entanglement, leading to the arrest of two individuals in connection with the murder.

“Based on the information we have received, the young man was slain on the temple grounds on Friday night. Two suspects have been apprehended by our team. Further investigation is currently underway,” stated the SDOP.
