During their stay, the accused had physical relationship with the girl on the pretext of marriage.
When the girl realised that she was cheated, she lodged a complaint at the station.
Kantabanji IIC Anand Charan Majhi said since the girl is from ‘Sahara’ caste, which is ST category, and the boy from Bania caste belonging to OBC category, the boy’s parents were not willing for the marriage. During their stay in rented house, his parents might have persuaded him to ditch the girl, Majhi said.
