PAGE COUNTY, VA (Rocktown Now) – The Page County Sheriff’s Office says it is committed to assisting the Manassas Park Police Department and the FBI in the search for the remains of Ms. Mamta Bhatt.

She is a resident of Manassas Park, who was last seen in July.

As part of the investigation, the search area includes the Page County Landfill, one of several final disposal sites for waste from Northern Virginia waste companies.

Sheriff Chad Cubbage stated that while the landfill falls within the jurisdiction, the Page County Sheriff’s Office is not the lead agency in this case.

Her husband, Naresh Bhatt, has been charged with murder in the case and has a trial set for September in Prince William County Circuit Court.
