The two were allegedly in love with each other and they committed suicide after the families refused to marry. Officials said that on March 20, the body of the boy was seen floating in the river near the command post near the Line of Control (LoC). “The police and rescue teams tried to evacuate him, but due to the strong current, he went to the other side of the border,” an official said.
