Dharmasthala whistleblower arrested by SIT for perjury, fake evidence

Big update in Dharmasthala case: SIT probing the mass burial case has arrested the whistleblower. The whistleblower had appeared before SIT chief Pranab Mohanty on August 22 and recorded his statement. On July 11, the whistleblower had handed over skeletal remains of a body that he had allegedly exhumed to the police. The skeletal remains he presented to the court are believed to not be from Dharmasthala and were probably from a laboratory , according to the SIT sources. “For this reason, he has been booked under the charge of creating false evidence and perjury,” an SIT officer said.
