Police are searching a Northern Virginia park for evidence related to a missing Manassas Park mother.
Detectives developed information that led them to Signal Hill Park in their search for Mamta Kafle Bhatt, who was last seen July 31.
“Item(s) that have been collected are being processed to determine if they are connected to this investigation,” the Manassas Park Police Department said in a statement to ݮý.
Kafle Bhatt’s husband, Naresh, has been charged in connection with her disappearance.
In an interview with ݮý, Manassas Park Police Chief Mario Lugo said the search for Kafle Bhatt has presented “a lot of challenges, but we’re definitely trying to find her.”
During a hearing on Thursday, Naresh waived his preliminary hearing, sending the felony charge of concealing a dead body directly to a grand jury. He will return to court on Oct. 7.
