Bodies of two youths were found near Boria Khurd pond on Saturday morning. The victims were hacked to death by some sharp-edged weapon, police said. According to police, the deceased were identified as Harish Singh Rajora (25), son of Govind Singh Rajora, a resident of Santoshi Nagar and Ajay alias Guddu (21), son of Ramu Deep, a resident of Shiv Nagar Tikarapara. “Throats of both the victims were slashed with some sharp-edged weapon. No other major injury marks were found on the bodies,” Inspector Sanjay Singh of Central Crime Branch informed.
The bodies were spotted near Shiv Mandir adjacent to Boria Khurd pond by some local people on Saturday morning, who had informed the police.
