Bengaluru: In a heart-wrenching incident, the bodies of a recently married couple were discovered in an agriculture pit near Bijjavara in Devanahalli taluk on Sunday morning.

The victims were identified as Ramesh (28), an electrician, and Sahana (26). The couple had tied the knot just three months ago, following a love marriage that went against the wishes of their respective families. Despite facing familial opposition, they had chosen to stay together in a rented house to avoid any potential conflicts.

According to the police, two days before the tragic discovery, Ramesh and Sahana had visited their relatives in Bijjavara. However, during their visit, they were treated indifferently by their relatives. After the visit, the couple bid farewell, stating their intention to return home.

On the morning of July 31, the lifeless bodies of Ramesh and Sahana were found in the agriculture pit. Local residents of Bijjavara extended their assistance in retrieving the bodies from the pit.

The Vijayapura Police Station has registered a case, and a thorough investigation into the matter is underway to ascertain the circumstances that led to this unfortunate incident.

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.
