*Ranchi, Oct 7 (PTI)* The mortal remains of the slain Jharkhand Inspector
Francis Induwar was today laid to rest with full police honours.

Buglers sounded the last post as the body, draped in the tricolour was taken
to the Tungri Toli burial ground here.

Inspector General of Police (Special Branch) Bibhuti Bhusan Pradhan and the
Inspector General of Police, Rezi Dung Dung, were among the mourners present
at the Christian burial.

The body was earlier taken to a church where father Ignes Topno led a mass.

Induwar, who joined the police services in 1989, was brutally beheaded by
the Maoists after being kept in captivity from September 30.

The body of Induwar, who was promoted to inspector rank in March this year,
was thrown by Maoists near Raisha Ghati near here in Khunti district
yesterday morning.
