Police team and Forensic experts today visited the site to collect the clues. From the spot, empty few liquor bottles were recovered.
However, as per medical reports, no unnatural offence had taken place with the boy.
As reported, seven year old Akhil Kumar alias Pinky, son of Ramesh Lal of Khandwal, Chatha went missing after he went for tuition.
His body was recovered by police from the fields in the Khandwal area in mutilated condition with one eye gouged out and cut marks on hands and neck.
