In the other case, registered with the Telco thana, a police team has rushed to Ranchi after receiving information about the girl’s whereabouts.

According to police, Sangeeta Kumari (21), a resident of Zone No 1-B in Birsanagar went missing from her house on Tuesday morning. Family members suspected that she eloped with her boyfriend Vishal Kamath (from Parsudih) and lodged an FIR against him.

"We came to know that the couple were on NH-33 close to Hazaribagh. We then contacted Hazaribagh police and alerted them, giving details about the girl's appearance. They immediately started checking incoming vehicles and ultimately traced the girl and her lover on Wednesday morning. They were in a car, and heading toward Hazaribagh town," Rajiv Kumar Jha, OC, Birsanagar thana, told The Telegraph Online.

Hazaribagh police took both in custody and handed them to Birsanagar police in the afternoon.

A 16-year-old girl, resident of Prem Nagar in Telco, was allegedly abducted from the marketplace on Monday evening, leading the girl's father to lodge an FIR with the Telco thana on Tuesday.

Family members were aware of her boyfriend Sunil Sahni, and searched at his house in Burmamines, finding he was missing too.

OC, Telco thana, Akhilesh Mandal said that they put the couple’s cell phones under surveillance, but could not trace their whereabouts. He said the girl called her father on Wednesday morning and told him that she would not return home and stay with Sahni after marrying him.

"During the course of the conversation, the girl mentioned that she was ]in Ranchi. We have sent a team of police officials to Ranchi," Mandal said while talking to The Telegraph Online.
