Couple beaten and burnt alive on orders of a kangaroo court in Bihar village
Reports said the girl and her alleged lover, a 36-year-old man, were allegedly killed after a public hearing attended by hundreds of people, including the girl's family.
The incident was reported by a neighbouring village.
The police say an FIR has been filed against 15 people including the girl's father.
The man was allegedly married, with three children. He used to come to the village frequently to visit his in-laws. There he reportedly met the teenager.
The two allegedly ran away three days ago, but were caught by the girl's family and brought back to the village on Wednesday morning.
