For the sixth consecutive day on Monday, the strike by lawyers of Cuttack city continued, thereby hampering the judicial activities in all the courts and tribunals here including that of the Orissa High Court. The lawyers are agitated over an assault by policemen on a lawyer here last Tuesday.
“Our agitation will continue until the erring policemen and a private person, against whom FIRs have been registered, are arrested,” said Orissa High Court Bar Association president Srikant Kumar Naik after a general body meeting of the association here on Tuesday.
