Bengaluru multiple murders: Two more bodies recovered near Mysuru
Police have now traced five of seven bodies in the case, while investigators question the cab driver over the sequence and motive behind the killings.
- On Monday, Bengaluru police recovered the final two bodies of seven family members allegedly murdered by cab driver Indushekhar from the Shiradi Ghat forest area, completing a multi-state search.
- Police suspect domestic disputes prompted Indushekhar to murder his wife Sunitha and six relatives over 15 to 20 days, allegedly dumping bodies across Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
- The case emerged after a missing-person complaint at Srirampura police station on November 3, with investigators believing the accused administered sedatives and increased television volume to mask the crimes.
- Before Monday, police identified five victims including seven-year-old Puneeth near Nandi Hills after an 11-year-old witnessed the suspect 'dump sacks,' plus Sunitha, Roopavathi, Shivakumar, and Divya from Chamundi Hills and Salem.
- Police will conduct postmortem examinations in Mysuru before releasing the bodies to family members, while continuing to question Indushekhar to establish the sequence and motive behind the killings.
