BAREILLY: A young unmarried couple in their early 20s died by suicide in UP’s Shahjahanpur district on Saturday after their families refused to give their nod for marriage despite repeated attempts to convince them.
The girl, Pooja Devi (20), consumed poison after she was locked up in the house and was rushed to the hospital where she died during treatment. After getting this news, her boyfriend Avnish Kumar (22) hanged himself. Their bodies were handed over to police after a postmortem on Sunday, the police said.
