Colombo (LNW): The remains of Dinesh Schaffter, a renowned businessperson who died under mysterious circumstances, are to be exhumed today (25).

The late businessman’s remains will be exhumed based on a request made to the Court by the Committee of Medical Experts appointed to investigate his death, Police Spokesperson SSP Nihal Thalduwa said.
