Police Find Dead People in Bihar and Haryana

Introduction

Police in Bihar and Haryana are looking for killers. They found dead people in two different places.

Main Body

In Bihar, police found four dead people. A child and an adult were in suitcases in a river. Two other people were in bags under a bridge. The killer cut the bodies to hide who they were. Police think the four people were in one family. They are talking to local workers and using dogs to find clues. They are also asking police in other states for help. In Haryana, a 23-year-old woman died. Police found her body in a bed. Her cousin and husband killed her with a plastic bag. The man is now running away from the police.

Conclusion

Police are still working. They want to find the killer in Haryana and the names of the dead people in Bihar.

πŸ” The "Action-Result" Pattern

Look at how we describe things that happened in the past using the -ed ending. This is the key to telling a story in English.

The Pattern: Person + Action-ed + Thing

Examples from the text:

  • Police β†’ found (irregular) β†’ dead people
  • Killer β†’ cut (irregular) β†’ the bodies
  • Husband β†’ killed β†’ her

πŸ“¦ Where is it? (Prepositions of Place)

To reach A2, you must be able to say where something is. The text uses three simple ways:

  1. IN (Inside a space) β†’\rightarrow in suitcases, in a bed
  2. UNDER (Below something) β†’\rightarrow under a bridge
  3. TO (Moving toward a goal) β†’\rightarrow talking to workers

Quick Tip: Use IN for cities/states (Bihar, Haryana) and UNDER when something is covered by something else.
