Balasore: A human skeleton has been recovered by the police from an abandoned stone quarry at Tiakata village in Odisha’s Balasore district.
The skeleton has been recovered from a long abandoned stone quarry in a remote hilltop Berhampur area in Nilagiri subdivision on Sunday, a police official said on Monday.
The police came to know about the skeleton when some local people found it while going inside the forest for goat grazing.
Saroj Kumar Upadhya, the sub-divisional police officer (SDPO) of Nilgiri, was quoted by news agency PTI as saying that a police team has rushed to the spot on Monday to further investigate the case and samples of the remaining skeleton will be sent for forensic medicine and toxicology (FMT) examination.
“We are clueless at present about the details of the remaining skeleton recovered from this isolated and inaccessible spot in the forest,” he said.
It might be a murder case, suicide or somebody might have fallen into the abandoned ditch due to negligence while walking in the forest, said the police.
