Pune: In a deeply distressing incident, two young men were found dead by hanging from the same branch of a lemon tree in Khirid Vasti, near Bharatmata Chowk in Moshi, under MIDC Bhosari Police Station limits. The incident came to light on the morning of April 12.
The deceased have been identified as: Tushar Ashok Dhage, 25, a resident of Honda Pimpalgaon, Taluka Jamkhed, District Ahilyanagar and Sikandar Sallauddin Shaikh, 30, reportedly from the same area.
Police said both men were friends and had travelled from their native village to Pune a day prior to the incident. The bodies were discovered early in the morning, hanging from a single tree branch, raising concerns of a possible suicide pact.
