Four months on, no breakthrough in missing Bengaluru girls case; CID probe ordered
Bengaluru: The case of two students who went missing under mysterious circumstances four months ago in the jurisdiction of Vidyaranyapura Police Station has been transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department for further investigation, as no breakthrough has been made so far.
The missing students have been identified as Taniska, a second PUC student, and Tejaswini, a first PUC student. Both went missing on January 31 after leaving their homes, carrying only their Aadhaar cards. They have not returned since, prompting their parents to file a complaint with the police.
During the initial investigation, police found CCTV footage showing the two students crossing certain junctions. There were early indications that they may have travelled towards Male Mahadeshwara Hills, but searches conducted there did not yield any results, sources said.
Police teams carried out searches in more than 100 locations across the country, including Mysuru, Chennai, Coimbatore, Kerala, and Delhi. However, no trace of the students has been found. Cops said the two have not used mobile phones or ATM cards since their disappearance. They have also not contacted friends, relatives, or family members, making the case more difficult to crack.
With no progress in the investigation, the parents had urged the government to hand over the case to the CID. Following this, the government transferred the case to the CID, and a special team has now been formed to trace the missing students.
