Days after the bodies of a couple were found in Budhana town of the district, the youth's father has been arrested for allegedly abetting the suicide.

Ashish (27) from a village in Baghpat district and Moni (23) from Lukser district of Uttarakhand had eloped but the youth's father, Rajender, was opposed to their relationship which forced them to commit suicide by consuming poison, Station House Officer Kamal Singh Yadav said.

Rajender was arrested after a case under relevant sections of the IPC was registered against him yesterday on the complaint lodged by the girl's brother Binder.

In his complaint, Binder has alleged that the couple had been harassed by Rajender.
 

The bodies of the couple were found in Budhana town on December 9.
