“An FIR has been registered. Our officials have been sent to Mysuru from Bengaluru. I am also going to Mysuru tomorrow. This is a very unfortunate incident. Two students visited the forest near the helipad yesterday evening at around 7.30pm when a group of miscreants committed the heinous crime,” Araga Jnanendra, home minister of Karnataka, said.
