The Karnataka government has formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe allegations of disappearances, sexual abuse, and mass murders in the temple town of Dharmasthala. The investigation was initiated after a former sanitation worker came forward with claims that he was forced to bury hundreds of bodies, many of whom were women and girls, over nearly two decades from 1995 to 2014. The whistleblower stated he was ordered to dispose of dead bodies, many of which bore signs of brutal violence and sexual assault. He claims influential people are involved and has been granted witness protection before he names the accused. The SIT, headed by top police officer P. Mohanty, will now investigate these decades-old allegations. This move comes amid calls for a court-monitored probe to ensure a fair investigation and prevent witness intimidation. Additionally, a political storm is brewing in Andhra Pradesh, where former Chief Minister Jaganmohan Reddy has been named in the CID’s remand report concerning an alleged ₹3,200 crore liquor scam. In other news, the Enforcement Directorate has summoned Tollywood stars including Rana Daggubati and Vijay Devrakonda for promoting illegal betting apps, and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin has been hospitalized after experiencing mild giddiness. #dharmasthala #dharmasthalahorror #karnataka #sitprobe #justiceforvictims #whistleblower #massmurder #indiatoday #crime #investigation #karnatakanews #siddaramaiah #humanrights #coverup #missingwomen #super6 #massburial #andhrapradesh #liquorscam #jaganmohanreddy #tollywood #ed #ranadaggubati #tamilnadu #mkstalin #newsupdate
