Udupi: State High Court dismissed the bail application filed by Rajeshwari Shetty, main accused in the murder of her husband, Bhaskar Shetty on Thursday. The judge said that there is sufficient evidence against her to prove her role in the murder, bail cannot be granted to her in such circumstances.


The prosecution had contended that if Rajeshwari is released on bail, there are chances of her destroying evidence relating to the crime.

Bhaskar Shetty went missing from his residence in Indrali in Udupi in July last year. He was reportedly killed by his wife Rajeshwari and son Navneeth with help of an astrologer Niranjan Bhat. A week later, Rajeshwari and her son Navaneet were arrested by the Manipal police. Later three more arrests were made. During interrogation, it was found that Bhaskar Shetty was killed and then burnt. Later his remains were immersed in a river.
