Bhatkal: In a development that has raised concerns in the Bhatkal area, the suspicious death of 35-year-old civil engineer Fahad Motiya occurred around 9:30 PM on Saturday. Fahad, son of Farooq Motiya, has left behind several unanswered questions regarding the circumstances of his death.
Fahad reportedly left his aunt’s residence near Abu Ubaida Mosque on Goodluck Road around 9 PM on his bike. Shortly after, his body was discovered a short distance away. His bike was found parked approximately 30 steps from the location in a downhill area near Hurulisal.
Eyewitnesses stated that some passers-by noticed a person lying on the ground in the dark and moved him under a nearby streetlight to check on him, only to find that Fahad was unresponsive. Local leaders who arrived at the scene immediately rushed him to a hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival.
As news of Fahad’s death spread, large crowds gathered at the hospital. While some suspected that he might have suffered a cardiac arrest, others pointed to faint marks visible on his neck, which medical professionals reportedly identified as concerning.
Family members and close associates revealed that Fahad had been under stress due to financial disputes and was allegedly attacked 15 days ago. They suspect that he may have been strangled or suffocated with a cloth by the perpetrators.
The Bhatkal Rural Police have visited the scene and gathered evidence, examining the distance between the bike and the body, among other details. Bhatkal DySP Mahesh assured a thorough investigation into the threats and assaults Fahad had faced previously.
Fahad’s body has been sent to Manipal for a post-mortem examination to ascertain the exact cause of death. City Police Station PSI Naveen, Rural PSI Chandan Gopal, forensic expert Ramesh, and other officials inspected the scene and are continuing the investigation.
