A teenage couple committed suicide on Friday by jumping in front of a moving train in the Maharajpur area here, police said. The incident came to light after passers-by noticed the mutilated bodies of a girl and a young boy on the railway tracks and informed the police, Station House Officer (Maharajpur) Mukesh Kumar Solanki said.
They were identified as Khushbu and Mayank Yadav (20). Khushbu was a minor and an Intermediate student, they said. Both were residents of neighbouring villages of Maharajpur, the SHO said.
Preliminary probe suggests that the two were in a relationship and their parents were against it as they belonged to different castes, the officer said.
