UMERKOT, Oct 6: A flood-affected boy was found hanged in a jungle near Janhero camp on Thursday.

Sixteen-year-old Sagram, son of Ramchand Bheel, was hanged by a tree near the relief camp.

His brother Sawan told police that area people had told him that the naked body of Sagram was hanging in a tree. He went there and found the brother dead. Police took the body to the district headquarter hospital for autopsy.

He alleged that Sagram had been killed after an assault because his trousers were lying on the ground near the body. Footsteps of three persons were visible near the body, he added.

The victim recently migrated from the village of Syed Buland Shah with his family to the camp.
