Joint Commissioner (Crime) Himanshu Roy addressing a press conference in Mumbai on the murder of wannabe starlet Laila Khan says six skeletons have been found of which three skeletons have skull injuries. The skeletons were found in a pit in a farmhouse in Igatpuri. A blood stained iron rod has also been found. The injuries were inflicted prior to death, said doctors.

The police say DNA tests have still to be carried out to confirm if the skeletons belong to Laila and her family.

Police on Tuesday found human remains, including three skulls, near a farm house of the starlet, raising suspicion that they could belong to her and her family members who had been missing since early last year.

The remains were dug out after a day-long search by a team of Mumbai crime branch near the farm house in Igatpuri, 100 km from Mumbai, in Nashik district, police sources said.
