Dharmasthala Case | Masked Man, A Skull, Mass Grave Claim: Decoding The Dharmasthala Conspiracy

A masked man, skull in hand, walked into a police station in Karnataka's temple town, Dharmasthala, on July 3 and made chilling allegations about a mass grave where hundreds of women, many of them victims of sexual assault, were buried. The man, later identified as CN Chinnayya, said he was forced to bury these bodies between the 1990s and 2000s, and had approached the police because he was overwhelmed by guilt. The wild allegations played into rumblings in the town over the disappearance of young girls over decades and catapulted Dharmasthala to national limelight. NDTV's Deepak Bopanna brings you the details.
