Bhubaneswar: In order to unravel the mystery behind the death of ACF Soumya Ranjan Mohapatra, the family members of the deceased have demanded a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.
Ranjan Mohapatra, the elder brother of Saumya Ranjan, raised a question mark on the investigation carried out by the Paralakhemundi police and said that the exact truth will come to the fore only if CBI probes the case.
Speaking to the media persons, Ranjan said, “We have lost faith in the investigation being done by the Paralakhemundi police. None of the accused has been arrested even 21 days after the incident.”
Recently, the post-mortem report was handed over to investigating officers, which revealed the officer died due to 95% of burn injuries.
On July 12 night, the ACF was rescued from his official quarters in Paralakhemundi under mysterious circumstances with severe burns and succumbed a day later.
