On Friday, the slit-throat bodies of Shakil Miah and Imran Hossain of Dhamrai Upazila were found at Moyur Bhanga village in Mirzapur upazila of Tangail, two days after their abduction.

The two boys went missing after they had gone to nearby Haria High School in Tangail to watch annual sports there. The abductors later demanded Tk 1 lakh to each of their families over the phone as ransom.
