Mangalore, Dec 29: They say love can make you do strange things and go to any extent to spend those precious moments with the one you cherish.

A youth who was caught in a burkha here on Friday December 28 is a prime example of this fact.

The youngster dared to wear burkha to meet his love, roamed with her freely unnoticed by the people, but finally landed in trouble when he was caught by the public and handed over to the police.

The incident took place near Besant College on Friday December 28 noon.

The lovebird has been identified as Ajith.

Ajith and his girlfriend belong to the same religion and are in fact relatives, but their families were opposed to their relationship. Hence they would meet secretly without the knowledge of parents and other family members.

Ajith hails from Udupi and the girl from Mangalore.

On Friday, with an intention to meet the girl and spend time with her, Ajith somehow managed to borrow a burkha and came to meet her near Besant College around 12 noon. People grew suspicious when they noticed the person in burkha wearing blue Converse shoes. Moreover, the headscarf accidentally slipped off, revealing the boy. Soon, the traffic police on duty was informed.

The lovebirds were then taken in a police vehicle to Barke police station where they were interrogated and the entire story came to light.

The youth revealed that their fathers were against their relationship and had even yelled at them, and hence he had to opt for burkha to meet his love.

The police called the girl’s mother and discussed the matter with her. The boy and girl were released by the police with a warning. No case was registered against them.
