The bodies of a young couple were
found hanging on a tree in the Indian town of Muzaffarnagar in Uttar
Pradesh, on the same day the woman was supposed to get married to a man
chosen for her by her parents.
The death of
Rajneesh Kumar, 21, and Imrana Bano, 18, has sparked questions whether
the two committed joint suicide or they were murdered as authorities try
to look deeper into the matter.
But close friends are of the view that Kumar and Bano must have committed suicide because they were not given permission by their families to marry each other because they belonged to different communities.
Kumar
is Hindu while Bano is Muslim but they did not allow their different
religions to come between the love they had for each other, according to
a friend close to Kumar. The couple had been missing since the night
before they were found dead, police said.
Police said that the couple had been in love for about 4 years, but their families were against them getting married.
Bano’s family found her a man of her community, and she was supposed to get married on the day of her death.
