Karnataka: Probe into secret burials near Netravati river gathers pace
A whistleblower's complaint about forced secret burials near the Netravati river in Karnataka has led to a major investigation.
Authorities recently found skeletal remains at some of the sites, which are now being examined by forensic experts to figure out what really happened.
Investigators have set up a temporary base nearby to expedite
The story broke when a former sanitation worker came forward, prompting police to file an FIR on July 4.
Since then, a Special Investigation Team has searched six out of 13 spots named by the whistleblower.
While nothing turned up at first, new evidence has given fresh energy to the search—dog squads and forensic teams are now combing through the area, and investigators have set up a temporary base nearby to keep things moving quickly.
