Mystery shrouds recovered handwritten letter

Sunday, 15 January 2023 | PNS | CUTTACK

In a new twist to the death case of woman cricketer Rajashree Swain, a letter has been recovered from the dickey of her scooter, which had been abandoned in the jungle near Gurudijhatia in Athagarh of Cuttack district.

In the handwritten letter, Rajashree has held two persons, her coach Pushpanjali Banerjee, and a former official of the Odisha Cricket Association (OCA), responsible for her death.

Meanwhile, her family has filed a complaint at the Gurudijhatia police station demanding to register a murder case against the OCA officials.

Rajashree’s mother said the handwriting in the recovered does not match with her daughter’s. She alleged that the two aforesaid OCA officials are involved in the killing of her daughter.

Notably, the OCA on Friday had claimed that there were no irregularities in the selection of players for the State women cricket team to go to participate in the Puducherry event.

Rajashree, who had gone missing from Cuttack on January 11 under mysterious circumstances, was found hanging from a tree in a dense forest near Athagarh.
