Khurda: Police on Monday recovered the decomposed body of a missing youth from Barabojhia forest in Khurda district.

Reportedly, Khordha police have handed over the body to the family after post-mortem. The cause of death behind the youth’s death was not immediately ascertained.
Khordha police have initially registered a case (65/22) of unnatural death and started a probe in this regard, a police official said.
