Hindu woman in bridal attire, Muslim man found hanging from tree in UP's Jhansi
Jhansi (UP) (PTI): A Muslim man and an 18-year-old Hindu woman dressed in bridal attire were found hanging from a tree here on Saturday, with police suspecting that the duo took the extreme step after her marriage was fixed elsewhere.
However, family members of both denied having any knowledge of a romantic relationship between them.
The police said they are waiting for the post-mortem report, and the matter is being investigated from all angles, although no complaint has been received from either side so far.
The duo, Yazul (20) and Muskan, were residents of the Patti Kumharra village.
Station House Officer (SHO) Chirgaon police station Rahul Rathore said that villagers noticed the bodies hanging from a tree on the premises of an abandoned house.
The woman was found dressed in bridal attire, raising suspicion among locals that the duo were distressed over being unable to marry because of their different faiths.
Police sources said the man and the woman allegedly hanged themselves after her engagement was fixed elsewhere.

US VP JD Vance says Lebanon not part of ceasefire, calls it ‘misunderstanding’
Budapest/Washington: US Vice President J D Vance has said that Lebanon was never included in the ceasefire understanding with Iran, describing the confusion as a “legitimate misunderstanding”.
Speaking to reporters before departing from Hungary, Vance said, “I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon and it just didn’t. We never made that promise.”
He stressed that the United States had not included Lebanon in the scope of the ceasefire at any stage.
His remarks come amid continued Israeli strikes in Lebanon, where more than 200 people were reported killed, even as ceasefire talks between Iran and the US move forward.
Vance said Israel had “offered … to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful”.
He warned that if Iran allows the situation in Lebanon to affect the negotiations, it could derail the talks.
“If Iran wants to let this negotiation fall apart in a conflict where they were getting hammered over Lebanon, which has nothing to do with them and which the United States never once said was part of the ceasefire, that’s ultimately their choice,” he said.
