Kollur, September 15, 2025: A grim discovery was made on Saturday, September 14, 2025, at around 3:30 PM near Belekodlu Road, Jadkal Er, Hosur village, Byndoor taluk, when Ravi alias Ravish (42), a resident of Jadkal village, stumbled upon evidence suggesting a possible suicide. While searching for his cattle in a government forest path, Ravi found a pair of pants, a shirt, a keypad mobile phone, a pair of slippers, and fragments of human bones. A nylon rope, partially cut, was also found tied to a nearby tree.

Police suspect that an unidentified man, approximately 2-3 months ago, may have committed suicide by tying one end of the rope to the tree and the other around his neck. After the rope broke, the body likely fell and was consumed by wild animals, such as pigs, leaving only bone fragments. The Kollur Police have registered a case under UDR No. 22/2025, invoking Section 194(3)(iv) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), and are investigating to identify the deceased and confirm the circumstances.
