The bodies of a 32-year-old man and his sister-in-law were found hanging from a tree in Ranchi district on Monday, police said.

Preliminary investigation revealed that they were in an illicit relationship, and died by suicide as their families did not accept it, a police officer said.

The man was married to the 19-year-old woman's elder sister. He had come to her house with his family to attend her wedding, following which the incident happened.

The bodies were found hanging from a tree near Pagla Baba ground at Manjhitoli, said Ram Kumar Verma, the officer-in-charge of the Bundu police station.

The bodies were sent for post-mortem examination, he said.
