Mandya, August 21: The sensational Dharmasthala case has taken a dramatic turn after the ex-wife of the mysterious Mask Man (Anonymous/Bheem) came forward with explosive revelations. Mask Man, who accused Dharmasthala of burying hundreds of bodies, had sparked national debate and triggered an SIT investigation. However, his ex-wife has now exposed shocking details about his past, calling him a habitual liar.
Dharmasthala Mask Man’s Allegations
The masked individual, covered head-to-toe and hiding his identity, had claimed that hundreds of rape and murder victims were buried in Dharmasthala. His statements led to a large-scale probe, where SIT officials dug multiple sites around Dharmasthala. Despite extensive searches, bones were found only in two locations, raising doubts about his claims.
Ex-Wife Unmasks Him
Speaking in Mandya, the ex-wife revealed:
- They were married in 1999 and lived together for seven years, during which they had a son and daughter.
- He worked in Dharmasthala as a sweeper and bathroom cleaner, not in any higher role.
- According to her, his claims of burying bodies are false and fabricated, possibly motivated by money and external pressure.
She added, “He used to beat me, lie in court to avoid paying alimony, and cheated me repeatedly. My mother raised our children. Dharmasthala gave us food and work. It’s unfair to tarnish its name with lies.”
Allegations of Abuse
The ex-wife described a troubled marriage filled with abuse:
- He allegedly beat her frequently and eventually drove her away to marry another woman.
- During their divorce, he claimed unemployment to avoid alimony.
- She accused him of being arrogant and violent, with a history of mistreating family members.
She concluded, “I recognized him the moment I saw him on TV by his body shape. He is a cheater and a liar. He never spoke about bodies or crimes when we were together. He is only doing this for money. Even if he dies, we will not go to see him.”
Villagers Speak Out
Earlier, villagers from Chowdahalli also identified the Mask Man, describing him as lazy and untrustworthy since his youth. Friends and relatives have since confirmed details about his past.
What’s Next in the Case
With the ex-wife’s revelations, the Mask Man’s credibility is under serious question. While the SIT investigation is still underway, the lack of evidence and testimonies against him may alter the trajectory of the case.
Conclusion
The Dharmasthala case, which captured national attention with shocking claims of mass graves, has now taken a dramatic twist. With the Mask Man’s ex-wife exposing his past and branding him a liar, the credibility of his allegations is at stake. For now, Dharmasthala awaits the final word from the SIT investigation to put speculation to rest.
