India: Camp to find missing people, identify bodies


Ten police units from the adjoining districts will come together for the first time for identifying missing people and unidentified bodies during a two-day camp at the Bhimashankar hall of Pune rural police headquarters at Chavanagar in Pashan on Wednesday.

The police teams of Pune rural, Pune city, Ahmednagar, Thane rural, Raigad, Satara, Sangli, Kolhapur, Solapur and Navi Mumbai will participate in the camp which will remain open for people between 10 am and 8 pm.

Manoj Lohiya, superintendent of police (Pune rural), said the aim is to identify people who were murdered. "For instance a body is found in Sangli, but a missing person's complaint is registered in Pune. The camp will help police units tally the details and share data to identify such missing people," he said.
