Udupi, Sep 11: A man, who has been missing for the past three and half months, was found dead on Sunday, September 11.
John D’Silva (72) from Baikady Bhadragiri is the person deceased. The skeletons of the deceased were found at Jathabettu near Uppoor.
John D’Silva had left his home to pay the telephone bill at Brahmavar on May 26. But he did not return home. His wife Leena D’Silva (58) complained to police about her missing husband. A search was launched by the family and police which did not yield any result.
On September 11, police received a call from a person who said that skeletons were located at the forest in Jathabettu. Police, who went to the place, came to the conclusion that it was the skeletons of John D’silva based on the clothes worn by the deceased.
It is now concluded that John D’Silva who had memory problems must have faced problems to know the right way to reach home. He must have collapsed and died from then. There is also a possibility that wild animals could have hurt him, police sources said.
