Yadgir: Dead bodies of boys who went grazing found in village stream
Yadgir: In a shocking incident reported from Devathkal village of Surapur taluk, two boys, Shreyanna (8) and Yuvaraja (9), who were grazing cattle, died of drowning on Sunday afternoon as they went for a bath in a stream nearby.
The boys had reportedly gone missing in the waters of the stream on Sunday afternoon. The family members found the boys’ clothes on the banks of the stream but, as their search for the boys proved futile, they brought the matter to the notice of the police and fire brigade.
The police team, led by Deputy Superintendent of Police Javed Inamdar and Inspector Anand Wagmode, along with the staff members of the fire brigade, searched for the missing boys on Sunday night, but failed to find the boys. The search was resumed on Monday morning and, at around 9 am on Monday, the bodies of both boys were found in the stream, sources have said.
A case has been filed by the Surapur Police and investigation is underway.
