Royal Bhutan Police is yet to get leads on two separate cases pertaining to rape and murder of a minor in Paro and the unnatural death of a minor in Thimphu. The police say they are still investigating the cases.
An eight-year-old girl was raped and murdered in Satsam, Paro in September last year. Paro police say they are investigating and sending blood samples of suspects abroad for DNA testing. The DNA test result came negative for all the samples sent before. Paro Police have yet again collected blood samples of more than 100 suspects who failed to declare their whereabouts during the crime. Police say the crime scene is frequented site but people are not coming forward to help.
Similarly, Thimphu Police are asking family members and people around to help with the investigation on the death of a nine-year-old girl in Dangrina in Thimphu, last year. Although Thimphu police have sent the blood samples of few suspects for DNA test abroad, they have not arrested anyone so far since they could not prove anyone guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The girl went missing on 9th December and was found dead by the stream on 11th December.
