The family of Thazhekkuni Leela, one of the three persons who were killed when two elephants went on the rampage during a festival at the Manakulangara Devi Temple in Koyilandy last week, filed a complaint with the police alleging that ornaments on her body were missing after it was released to relatives following the post-mortem examination.
The family claimed that the deceased was wearing a gold chain and earrings besides four gold bangles while she was taken to the medical college, but the authorities returned only the bangles when the body was released. However, a portion of the earring was found on the temple premises after the incident.
