Imphal, August 28 2010:
A young couple was found dead near a paddy field rest-hut located under Bishnupur Ward No 3 this morning.
A police source identified the deceased persons as Soibam Inaocha (32) and his wife Laishram (Ningol) Bilashini Devi (23) of Urup Mayai Leikai.
Their bodies were found at around 9 am today.
Speculating that cause of death might be consumption of poison, the source maintained that grass near the spot of incident were found trampled and ripped apart suggesting initial struggle before passing out.
It is informed that the couple had arrived at the Bishnupur Ward No 3 Maning Leikai residence of Inaocha's elder sister on August 26 and after staying overnight reportedly told the sister the next morning that they would be leaving for their home in Urup, which is under Lilong Assembly Constituency.
Both the bodies have been brought to RIMS morgue.
