Karnataka’s police director general of police (intelligence) BK Singh, who heads a special team investigating the murder, said a set of three sketches were drawn up for two suspects based on inputs from people who reported seeing the men.
The first videos and sketches of the possible suspects in the murder of senior journalist Gauri Lankesh, who was killed outside her house early last
month.
“We have identified two main suspects with technical inputs and information from local sources... The suspects had been spotted in the area,” Singh said during a press conference.
The official said the motive, identity or affiliations of the killers are yet to be determined. “Can’t ascertain religion of suspects by external appearances like tilak or earrings as it could be done to mislead”, he said.
