Allegations of illegal burials and custodial torture from 1983 in Dharmasthala have resurfaced, sparking serious public concern. The case involves the death of two young men who reportedly drowned during a trip to Dharmasthala. Shocking claims emerged that local police buried the bodies without informing the families.
A month later, when the father of one of the deceased, Venkob Rao, approached the police station for information, he was allegedly assaulted in custody. Reports state he was beaten, stripped of valuables, denied water, and made to sign a forced statement under duress.
On August 31, 1983, this incident was raised in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly. Then-Chief Minister Ramakrishna Hegde, Opposition Leader S. Bangarappa, and Belthangady MLA Vasanth Bangera participated in the debate. Official records from the Assembly mention the issue in detail, including accusations against the Belthangady police.
Key questions remain unanswered: Why were the bodies buried without family consent? Why was a grieving father allegedly tortured? Who instructed the police to act this way? This video investigates the timeline, the political response, and the ongoing concerns regarding such sensitive incidents in Karnataka’s law enforcement history.
