Ballia, Uttar Pradesh (The Hawk): In order to look for "100 remains that had been buried in the premises of the house," a team from the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) visited a residence in the Ratsar hamlet. The team was joined by a dog squad and forensic experts.
The home is owned by Annu Singh, and a "cousin" from Canada named Shalini Singh filed a lawsuit, alleging that the bodies were buried between 1990 and 1995.
She claimed that where the bodies were interred, trees had been planted.
Shalini Singh, the complainant, went with the group but concealed her face.
Despite opposition from the locals, the crew thoroughly examined the region on Friday and Saturday. However, no evidence that might have supported the complaint was discovered.
According to Annu Singh, the SHRC and police team's unannounced arrival at the house to conduct an investigation was inappropriate. She claimed that she was not even acquainted with Shalini Singh, the plaintiff.
"Shalini Singh claims to be my stepsister's daughter, but this is untrue. We also discussed Shalini with the SHRC staff, but they were unable to provide a satisfactory response "Annu Singh added.
Amit Mishra, an investigator with the ASP rank, stated that the commission will get the report soon but would not provide further information.
