Agartala, September 12 (TIWN): In yet another serious question on the state’s safety and security, two teenage tribal girls were found dead near Takarjala South Higher Secondary School hostel at Takarjala.
Police officials from Takarjala police station said later this evening that the duo was identified as Sima Debbarma and Rina Debbarma both under 15 years of age.
Sima and Rina were later confirmed to have been students of the tenth standard at Takarjala South HS School.
The bodies were recovered 24 hours after they disappeared from the hostel, local sources said.
Based on preliminary investigation, the police said that three students living in the residential hostel reached out on a stroll when they were captured by a group of miscreants.
