Halagur: Two youths from Bengaluru, who had come to Ganalu Falls in Malavalli taluk of Mandya district, met watery graves after they reportedly went for a swim on Saturday.
The deceased have been identified as Samuel (21) and Sibil (21), both residents of M.S. Palya in Bengaluru.
It is learnt that Samuel and Sibil had come to Ganalu Falls on Saturday and according to sources, the two were caught in the whirlpool while swimming and were drowned.
Forest Guards, who saw a car parked near Ganalu Falls on Sunday, went near the Falls to investigate when they found two bodies floating in the river and immediately informed the Police.
Halagur Circle Inspector Dhanraj, Sub-Inspector Maruthi Tammannanavar and staff visited the spot and got the two bodies fished out of the river besides registering a case.
This news is full of misinformation. Firstly Sam was not from MS palya but from Coles Park, secondly they went in an Activa scooty not a car. Third the falls was shallow and it did not have any chance of having whirlpool. Just get facts checked and then publish. If you are doing a journalist’s job then do it correctly or else please don’t. Don’t tarnish someone’s name with misinformations
