Suspected human remains found during day 3 of Dharmasthala Mass Burial search
Dharmasthala: On the third consecutive day of excavation in connection with the alleged mass burial case under the Dharmasthala Police Station limits, suspected human remains have reportedly been found. However, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) has not officially confirmed these findings yet.
Sources say that some bone fragments were discovered during digging operations at the sixth location, situated near the bathing ghat of the Netravati River. This spot was one of the 13 sites identified earlier by the complainant in the case. As of now, SIT officials have not released any formal statement regarding these reported remains.
The SIT began the third day of the search on Thursday at 11:30 am, focusing on the sixth site close to the riverbank. In the previous two days, five other locations pointed out by the complainant were dug, but no human remains were recovered.
Thursday's development marks the first time during this ongoing operation that remains have allegedly surfaced, though their nature whether human or animal, has not yet been verified.
Alongside the SIT, several officials and experts have joined the operation, including Puttur Sub-Divisional Officer Stella Varghese, Belthangady Tahsildar Prithvi Sanikem, a medical team from KMC Mangalore, members from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL), and other technical and administrative personnel.

Niqab incident: Nitish Kumar perhaps revealing his true colours, says J-K CM
Srinagar (PTI): Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday criticised his Bihar counterpart over the niqab incident and said that Nitish Kumar might be slowly revealing his true nature.
"Nitish Kumar, who was once considered a secular leader, may be slowly showing his true colours," Abdullah told reporters here on the sidelines of a function.
Abdullah said Kumar removing the face veil of a Muslim woman doctor was wrong and cannot be justified by any means.
"We have seen this kind of incident here several years ago. Have you forgotten how Mehbooba Mufti removed the burqa of a legitimate voter inside a polling station? That act was wrong, and this act (of Kumar) is also wrong.
"If the (Bihar) chief minister did not want to hand over the order to her (Muslim woman), they could have kept her aside. However, to humiliate her like this is totally wrong," the Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said.
Kumar stirred a huge controversy after he removed the face veil of a Muslim woman at a function earlier this week.
