Four Human Skeletal Remains Found in West Bengal Forest Under InvestigationPreviousNext

Four human skeletal remains, including those of a child, were found in the dense Garh Jungle forests of Kanksa, Paschim Bardhaman district, West Bengal. Police recovered the skulls and bones after locals alerted authorities. Preliminary investigations suggest the remains belonged to two women, a man, and a child, with possible evidence of hanging. Forensic analysis is underway to determine identities, causes of death, and any links to a family reported missing two months ago. Authorities continue a detailed probe into the incident.
