Killer Pairs

(Published on 1. June 2022, 19:51 by Yawnus)

Do killers have friends? Well, at least in this puzzle they do. But, being stealth killers, they must keep their friends secret. Can you reveal the clandestine partnerships?

Rules:

Normal sudoku rules apply. Digits cannot repeat within a cage.
For each cage, there is exactly one other cage with the same digit sum.
Digits along both marked diagonals sum to the same total.

Nicely put together! Would love to see a version of this idea that didn't need the LK clues to resolve it

@starwarigami: I actually made one but it had many single-cell cages and less interesting break-in, so I decided to publish this version instead.
