In a very shocking incident, two teenaged boys who went missing on Friday in Assam were found dead today. The incident took place in Tangla town in Assam, where the two brothers, Gaurav Sharma and Kaushik Sharma, went missing while going to school on Friday morning. Both the boys were found beheaded some distance away from their home on Saturday morning.
14-year-old Gaurav Sharma and 12-year-old Kaushik Sharma, sons of Mahendra Sharma who works as a driver, were students of class six and five respectively at Kendriya Jatiya Vidyalaya in Tangla in Udalguri district. Their exams were going on and they left home for the school at around 8:45 AM on Friday morning. The school is around 500 meters away from the house, they used to walk to the school.
Their mother Geeta Sharma told the media that after some time, the principal of the school called asking why the kids have not come to the school for the exams. When she said that they have left for the school on time, the teachers looked for them thoroughly in the premises, and then called back saying that the kids are not in the school.
The parents were shocked to hear this, and they immediately launched a search for the boys. When they could not find them after looking in the entire town, they registered a case with the police. They suspected that the kids may have been kidnapped, and urged the police to find them.
Unfortunately, both the boys were found dead in the Sashtrapara area around 3 km away from Tangla town on Saturday morning. One passerby spotted the body of one kid lying near the road in a jungle area and immediately informed the police. After reaching the spot, the body of the other boy was found nearby by the cops. They were found beheaded with sharp weapons, and injury marks were found on the bodies who were in their school uniforms.
It is suspected the kids have been killed due to some enmity with the parents. It may not be a case of kidnapping for ransom as the family is financially not strong. Police have launched an investigation into the case.
