Four bodies were found at two places in the insurgency-ravaged Garo Hills region of Meghalaya Thursday, police said.

A police spokesperson said three bullet-riddled bodies were found in Oragitok village in West Garo Hills after the victims were kidnapped from other areas and gunned down by suspected militants Wednesday night.

Of the three bodies, one was identified as that of Grider T. Sangma from Samanda in East Garo Hills.

The fourth body - identified as that of Withal Marak - was found on a village road in North Garo Hills. The body had injuries on the back of the neck, Inspector General of Police G.H.P. Raju told IANS.

 

Police have launched a manhunt to nab the killers.

Garo Hills, comprising five districts of Meghalaya, has nine militant outfits operating there.
