Beltangady, Aug 8: A body of a youth was found on Wednesday August 7 in a farm belonging to Babu Gowda, a resident of Pangala in Dharmasthala.
The deceased has been identified as Ramakrishna (28), a resident of Kadaba Kaniyooru. The body was found in a nude state woth a piece of waist-cloth (lungi) tied around the neck and was lying near a tree with a piece of cloth still hanging tied to the tree.
The body lying in Babu Gowda's farm has given rise to suspicions. Though it appears that the youth fell and died after sustaining injuries to the head, there are neither marks of blood on the stone below or marks of any injury on the head.
If it was a suicide, what was the purpose of going naked. Sources say that he was employed in a nearby lodge. Doubts have risen as to whether he was killed because he came to know certain secrets. However, things can be known only after police investigation.
Beltangady police have visited the spot while fingerprint experts and senior police officials are expected to arrive soon.
