In yet another shocking incident, Vedanta Associate Officer-cum-Senior Process Controller Bhagwan Mishra, a resident of Puri, allegedly committed suicide here late on Saturday night.

Mishra (30) was found hanging from a fan in his bedroom at the Civil Township apartment here.

The Badmal police have registered an unnatural death case sent the body for postmortem.

Suspicion over the Vedanta official’s death has mounted as family members and in-laws’ family are blaming each other for the death, said police.

It may be noted that an engineer from Bhubaneswar had committed suicide in the Vedanta Civil Township on September 14.

Vedanta is now a beleaguered company in the State as the operations in its refinery and aluminium units are in dire straits owing to scarcity of bauxite supply.
