Mysore/Mysuru: Seven months after he drowned in a lake in Malaysia, the body of Sumanth, a native of Periyapatna, was brought to his village yesterday and the last rites were performed by tearful relatives. The family had lost a young breadwinner who had gone to Malaysia to earn a living.
Sumanth (22) died on December 15 last year under mysterious circumstances and his remains were brought to India, thanks to the efforts by Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha who left no stone unturned to help the family. Due to a lot of technical issues and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the body could not be brought earlier.
