Six bodies were recovered from two places in Jharkhand Tuesday, police said.

According to police, three beheaded bodies were found near Jambera jungle in the Seraikela-Kharsawan district, about 110 km from state capital Ranchi. The bodies were apparently of three youths missing since last Friday.

Police suspect the hand of Maoist guerrillas in the killings.
