In a tragic turn of events in Odisha's Nayagarh district, two minor brothers were found dead, raising suspicions of a familial murder. The boys, aged 14 and 11, reportedly opposed their father's intentions to remarry, sparking allegations that their deaths were staged as suicides.

Their maternal uncle has accused the father of orchestrating the murders to eliminate the opposition to his second marriage plans. Contrary to this, their grandfather contended that the boys took their own lives due to their disapproval of the remarriage, a theory that is awaiting confirmation pending autopsy results.

The local police have detained the father and launched an investigation. Superintendent of Police S Susree stated that the true cause of death will be revealed once the post-mortem report is available. The community awaits definitive answers as the case unfolds.
