The Panchayat of Gathwala Khap yesterday held a protest outside the police station at Fugana and asked the police to trace the girl within four days or the Panchayat would take further action.

Nadeem, a resident of Lisarh village in the district, had eloped with a girl Monika from Jat community on June 5 as the girl's family was opposed to their marriage.

Monika's family registered an FIR against the youth and his family members and also approached the Panchayat.

A police team has been sent to different places to trace the couple, SP city Rajkamal Yadav said.

Security has been tightened and extra police force has been deployed in the village to avoid any untoward incident.
