Udupi: Bhaskar murder - Police arrest Niranjan's father; find bones in Palli river


Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (UM)

Udupi, Aug 10: In a fresh development in the sensational Bhaskar Shetty murder case, the police have arrested accused Niranjan Bhat's father and his companion.

Srinivas Bhat, father of Niranjan, and Raghavendra, who drove Niranjan's car and often accompanied him, were arrested on Wednesday August 10 on charges of destroying evidence. Raghavendra had been taken into custody earlier, and officially arrested on Wednesday.

It is learnt that Raghavendra, who supposedly was not aware of Niranjan's alleged act of burning Bhaskar's body, was present when the latter threw the ashes and other materials used in the crime into the river. When Raghavendra questioned Niranjan about it, the latter reportedly replied that he was throwing 'chicken bones' into the water.

Srinivas, on the other hand, allegedly helped Niranjan by cleaning up the 'homa kunda' and replacing the bricks after the body had been burnt.

Meanwhile, the police took Bhaskar's wife Rajeshwari and son Navaneeth to Karkala for identification of crime scene. During the search for the remains of Bhaskar's body, the police found some bones in the river at Palli. The bones have been sent to the forensic lab for examination, sources said.

The locals in Palli who are unhappy with the police investigation are reportedly planning a protest, it is learnt.

    I find this criminal case is fit for a new film production.Very complicated are the Investigation.People Need not protest.Such criminal cases should be complete investigated and solved.Protest will only make complicated and longer.when I think about this case,even the son has admitted to be accused one,may be N.Bhat must have murdered ,because B.S.was his rival,wife was anyway on his side,and father must have helped him to clear the all other things which Police might take them in custody.One by one now Clearing things .End will be very thrilling.who knows who and how it exactly happened.But ashaming ,one.

    STRANGE LAWS
    MADE TO HELP .... ?
    WHEN A COMMON MAN CAN BE PROSECUTED FOR AIDING IN A CRIME OR KNOWING OR UNKNOWINGLY PART OF IT, WHY LAWYERS CAN'T BE CHARGED FOR TRYING TO SAVE THE GUILTY, CAN SOME ONE ELABORATE? FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE IS THE AIM OF A LAWYER AND I DONT THINK PROTECTING THE GUILTY - PROVEN OR NOT

    Thank God..At last Police found proof..Hope it is a REAL proof..If Lab report confirms it, then that is the end of the story..Game is Over. MAA and Beta plus Bhatta can't escape from Punishment..People would not have been so emotional,if victims had been some other person. Bhaskar Shetty came from a very poor family background..After SSLC,went to Mumbai and worked in Garage for 5 years..Then he went to Saudi,with hard work and efficiency he built his future..Became owner of 6 supermarkets..Helped his family,relatives,friends.He and his wife stayed together in Saudi for almost 18 years..Finally,he gave full rights to his wife to look after Durga Intl Udupi business..Rest is History..There is a rumor that some VIPs/Police are supporting this Shoorpanakhi..Trust me,if Shoorpanakhi is there,then Lakshmana too is waiting to cut Shoorpanaki's nose..Udupi will witness Historical verdict in favor of Bhaskar Shetty's mother..

    I do not understand our justice system, Even after the confession in details by the accused and everything proved and confirmed that this and this person did the crime, In the court totally different stories and laiwrs construct stories and help the criminals to escape.

    case complicated but challenging for police department,till now in udupi no one got capital punishment other then poor people.like Arushi,shahin or shashi taro wife case better case handed over to CBI. even COD cant do anything because previous case handed over to them like Ganesh Kamath ,Padmapriya and many more cases they couldn't able to punish anyone.
