The paramedics recover the body and transport the bag in the ambulance.
They are 15 and 17 year old sisters from Rahimpur in Uttar Pradesh in northern India.
On the 15th he was found dead hanging from a tree near his home.
Foreign media, including the Associated Press, reported that two teenage sisters in India were sexually assaulted and then killed.
The sister’s mother claims she was threatened the day before as she tried to stop the men on motorcycles from kidnapping the two girls.
Later, he went to look for his daughters, but said he eventually found a body hanging from a tree.
Police arrested six men living nearby on suspicion of raping and killing their sisters.
They are known for raping and strangling girls, then hanging their bodies from trees to disguise themselves as suicides.
The police commissioned an autopsy on the girls to determine the cause of death.
The two sisters are known to belong to the lowest caste, the “Dalit” class called Untouchables.
In Indian society, Dalits suffer from severe prejudice, discrimination and violence.
In 2020, a 19-year-old Dalit woman was raped and then killed in Uttar Pradesh, causing social outrage, but something similar happened again after two years.
