Kasaragod: 9-year-old boy, who was found dead under mysterious circumstance in a shed used for storing firewood near Bakery Junction at Sunkadakatte, Vorkady, died due to internal bleeding, informed the police investigating the death.

The deceased Shravanth Acharya (9), son of Gangadhar Acharya – Sharada couple living in a rented house at Vorkady Bakery Junction, appeared to be very sick and looked like having breathed his last when sleeping there. A few injury marks found on his body gave rise to suspicion about the death.

Pariyaram Medical College Hospital carried the post-mortem and tests revealed that the boy had fallen when playing on wooden log, which had injured his liver. The doctors concluded that the internal bleeding led to the demise of the kid. The fall might be the reason behind the injury marks found on the deceased body.
