Saharanpur (UP): A 19-year-old madrasa student was found hanging from a tree in Padoli village here early Monday, police said.
Superintendent of Police (Rural) Sagar Jain told PTI that Mohatsim, a Bihar native, had come to study at the Nasir Ul Uloom Madrasa in Padoli village in the Nagal Police Station area only two months ago.
Jain said that on Sunday, when his cousin, who also studies at the same madrasa, was not seen anywhere, Mohtasim went out in search of him.
His cousin returned to the madrasa in the evening, but Mohtasim did not.
When Mohatsim did not return till late night, the Madrasa management informed police.
Upon search, Mohtasim was found hanging from a tree in a field outside the village.
Jain said it is yet to be established whether he died of suicide or if there was any foul play involved. Police have sent the body for a postmortem.
