Yelamanchili police retrieved the bodies of a pair of lovers from a well early on Thursday morning.
According to Sub-Inspector Ramana, the victims were identified as Nani (24), an auto-rickshaw driver, and Sunita (26), a private employee. Both were residents of Ramarayudupalem in Visakhapatnam district.
The two are believed to have been in love since the past 4 years. Their parents did not agree to their marriage because of the age difference.
Nani's parents got him married off to another girl 6 months ago. His wife came to know about the affair with Sunita and questioned him.
Ramana stated that the likely cause behind the suicide pact was the conflict between Nani and his wife.
A case has been registered and further investigations are on.
