A body of a youth, who had jumped off the Trisulia bridge on river Kathjodi here on Tuesday evening, was recovered from the riverbank on Wednesday morning.
Some locals first spotted the body of the deceased identified as Debabrata Majhi of Gadhakana under the Mancheswar police station in Bhubaneswar and immediately called up police. A police team along with Fire Services personnel reached the spot and recovered the body.
On Tuesday evening, Debabrata had jumped into the river leaving his motorcycle and mobile phone on the bridge. Soon after, ODRAF and Fire Services personnel were pressed into service to search for him, but they failed to trace him.
Earlier this month, a man from Niali had jumped off the Kathajodi bridge in Cuttack over a domestic feud with his wife. His body was recovered almost after a week from river Devi near Rahamba under the Gobindpur police station in Cuttack district.
