Belagavi, June 24 (SocialNews.XYZ) In a shocking incident, seven foetuses were found floating in a gutter in Mudalgi town of Karnataka's Belagavi district on Friday.
According to the police, the foetuses were stuffed in five boxes and thrown into the flowing gutter.
The incident came to light after passers-by noticed the boxes floating in the drain near Moodalagi bus stand and informed the police.
District Health Officer (DHO), Mahesh Koni, confirmed the incident. Prima facie, it appears to be a case of gender detection and foeticide.
