Hassan, Jul 2: Two boys who left home, telling their family members that they are taking the cattle for wash, drowned in an agricultural pond. This tragic incident happened at Madapura village within the limits of Bailahalli gram panchayat in the taluk on Monday July 2.
The victims, Sudeep (17), and Sumanth (18), had left their homes together, promising to bathe their cattle. They did not return till the evening. Family members who searched for the bodies found them in the said agricultural pond.
On account of recent rains, the pond was filled to the brim. It is suspected that both would have gone into the pond and got stuck in the sediment deposited at the bottom and were unable to free themselves.
Hassan rural police visited the spot, noted down the details, and registered case of unnatural death.
