Karnataka: Dead fetuses found in stream were all male, says FSL report

BELAGAVI: The seven fetuses found dumped in a dried-up stream on Friday were all male fetuses, forensic tests have shown, reports Ravindra Uppar.

While this rules out the case in Mudalagi town as that of female foeticide, it has raised questions about the right way to dispose of fetuses. "This is not a case of female foeticide. According to the forensic science laboratory (FSL) report, all fetuses were male and they were abnormal. The fetuses were stored in plastic boxes using formalin. An investigation will be done because storing fetuses in this way is illegal," deputy commissioner Nitesh Patil said.
