The Hindu
The Tamil Nadu State Commission for the Protection of Child Rights has sought a status report on the unsolved murder of a 10-year-old boy, whose remains were found in early February this year.
The tortured remains of the body of the boy, who was unidentified, were found at the foothills of Malleswaram in a remote village in Bargur in February. The body was spotted by locals residents. The boy was found with his head tonsured, mouth stuffed with chilli powder, burns on the body and attired in new clothes, alluding to a possible human sacrifice. While the crime scene was investigated with the help of a sniffer dog, the investigation has failed to turn up any leads for the police.
