An investigating officer said the police got a call that the students, who had come to take coaching at a farmhouse on Hasanpur-Sabaras Road of Tawadu, were attacked by armed men.
“One amongst the students had revealed their location to the attackers. We suspect the attackers could be of a rival coaching centre.

The police said mobile phones of the students had been taken away from them and kept at a separate room at the farmhouse.
