Panambur police have registered the case and sent the body for autopsy. Investigations are underway. Family members suspect that Jagadish Suvarna (35) was murdered as "there were injury marks on his body".
Jagadish had gone to attend a marriage function on Thursday but didn't return, said family members, adding "He was associated with Bjarang Dal for last 15 years and recently was made Bajarang Dal convenor of Bengre".
Jagadish is survived by his wife, two sons and two daughters.
