Dharmasthala case: BJP demands narco test of witness complainant
Bengaluru: BJP MLC Kishore Kumar Puttur during the assembly session on Monday urged the government to conduct a narco analysis test on the anonymous witness complainant, who had claimed that hundreds of bodies were buried in the village.
Raising the issue during Zero Hour, he said that based on the complaint which alleged that human remains were buried at 13 locations near the Netravathi river in Dharmasthala, the state government had formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT). However, excavation at only the sixth identified site had yielded a male skeleton, while no evidence of bodies was found at other places despite the use of ground-penetrating radar (GPR).
Kishore Kumar noted that media reports had earlier mentioned that the Superintendent of Police had decided to subject the complainant to a narco test before proceeding further. “But till today, no such test has been conducted,” he pointed out.
He also questioned Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s decision to form the SIT in hurry. “Initially, the CM during media interaction had said there was no need for a special probe. But the very next day, he suddenly announced the SIT. This clearly shows that the government has succumbed to the pressure of Leftist forces with an anti-Hindu bias,” Kumar alleged.
