Udupi, Jul 12: The protective wall and platform built around a wall located within the premises of the police station at Brahmavar have disappeared all of a sudden. The incident occured on the night of Wednesday July 10.
This was noticed by a woman, who approached the well at around 8 pm that day to draw water from there.
The well here had been dug many years back when police quarters were constructed. The protective wall around the well was also built then.
Even the pump set and pipes fitted to it have been sucked into the well. A water tank located near the well now faces the prospects of collapsing. Because of rainy season, repairing of wells becomes highly impracticable because of deep standing water.
Revenue officials visited the spot, and estimated the loss to be about three lac rupees, said station house officer, Girish Kumar S.
