Panaji, Aug 12 (IANS) The Goa Police on Thursday issued a public appeal urging people not to broadcast photos of the remains of a 19-year-old girl, who was found in a semi-naked state at the popular Calangute beach earlier in the day.
The deceased, a resident of Nachinola village in North Goa, was missing since Wednesday morning and a missing complaint was filed by her father with a local police station.
"In an unfortunate incident reported at Calangute today, the dead body of a female was found at Calangute Beach. The matter is under investigation by District North Goa Calangute and Mapusa police station," the North Goa district police said in a statement.
"It is therefore requested to all persons to refrain from transmitting images of the dead body of the female as it is not only against the law but is also hurtful to the sentiments of the grieving family of the deceased woman," the statement also said.
Police also said that the body had been sent to a government hospital for a post mortem.
The body of a 32-year-old makeup artist, Geet Brar, associated with the Punjabi film industry was found dumped at Rajpura near here with bullet injuries on her head and neck, the police said today. The body of was found last night.
Quoting experts, Pakistan media claims that smog originating from India has engulfed Pakistan’s cities, especially Lahore. Large-scale burning (estimated at 3,500 fields per day) of paddy residual has left Pakistan residents gasping for breath, their reports claim.
Her family is in the national capital to meet her. Their relief however is only partial: Kaur’s 23-year-old daughter Reena, who is also in Saudi Arabia, remains untraceable.
