The state government on Saturday updated the number of missing people to 119 almost three weeks after the devastating landslides in Kerala's Wayanad. Though 128 people were listed as missing initially, the numbers were updated following the completion of DNA tests. Authorities had previously stated that the missing persons list would be updated as DNA identification of bodies progressed. As of August 14, 401 DNA tests have been conducted. Delays occurred due to the difficulty of testing decomposed body parts, with identifications now being made by matching DNA with relatives.
