The police on Saturday night found a body of a man bearing stab wounds, with his head smashed beyond recognition, in an abandoned shed in KG Hosahalli.
A senior police officer said the victim’s head was smashed with a boulder and they are yet to establish his identity. The assailants had also stabbed him multiple times and covered the body with a carpet and fled, the officer added. A few children, who were playing near the area, found blood stains and alerted passersby, who informed the
police.
The Thalaghattapura police have registered a case, and sent the body for postmortem.
