MAWKYRWAT, April 2: A 27-year-old man, hailing from Nongbah Marshillong village, has been found dead with injury marks on his neck at a paddy field in Riatthawlong under Mawkyrwat, South West Khasi Hills.
According to the police, after getting information from a resident of Mawtle Marshillong village about the recovery of the body, who has been identified as one Pynskemlang Lyngkhoi, a team was rushed to the spot to conduct an inquiry.
The police also informed that during questioning, a relative of the victim had informed that he had left his residence on March 31 around 9 pm.
