There is no clue on the two monks who went missing on Friday, March 27.

The monks, aged 18 and 16 of Trashigang Rabdey, were found missing at 8pm while taking attendance in the Lhakhang after the evening prayer. The monks were at the Gomphukora Lhakhang for their usual rituals.

“The monk were best friends and from the same village,” said a source.
