The State Crime Branch police on Wednesday submitted its final chargesheet in the case of the sensational murder of senior BJD youth leader Abhimanyu Sahu on Decembr 15 last year.
Crime Branch DSP Santosh Patnaik and Titilagarh Town police station IIC Chintamani Pradhan submitted the chargesheet in the Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate (SDJM) Court at Titilagarh.
The 178-page chargesheet has mentioned the details of the post-mortem report, materials seized in connection with the murder and the reports of the medical examination of the accused involved in the incident.
According to reports, the weapons used in the murder which had been sent to the State Forensic laboratory would be submitted to the court very soon. It may be mentioned that the State Government had ordered a Crime Branch probe into Sahu’s murder a day after the gruesome incident took place at Titilagarh.
Sahu was a strong contender for the BJD ticket for the Titilagarh Assembly seat. His widow Gita Sahu, however, was given the party ticket to contest the recent elections from the seat. In course of investigation, the Crime Branch police had arrested Alok Das, Naresh Singh alias Pental, Jagdish Bag and Santosh Rana and seized a car and a bike used by the four accused to carry out the crime.
