After a brief lull, the Student Congress on Friday resumed its agitation against BMC Mayor Ananta Narayan Jena for his alleged complicity in the death of engineering student
Asutosh alias Rishi Mohanty and a sex clip purportedly featuring him.
The Student Congress activists also demanded immediate arrest of Baleswar BJD MP Rabindra Jena for his alleged links with the Seashore chit fund company.
They demanded a CBI probe into the Rishi death-sex clip row and immediate resignation of the Mayor.
The activists led by Student Congress State president Itish Pradhan gheraoed the CBI office. A scuffle ensued between the agitators and the police personnel deployed there when the former tried to break into the police cordon to enter the CBI office.
The irate protesters also staged a road blockade at CRPF Square and Unit-8 DAV School Square.
later, the protestors submitted a memorandum to the CBI Director through the local CBI SP.
“We demand that the CBI intervene suo motu in the Rishi death case so that the murder mystery is revealed. The State Government intends to hush up the case through its police. The CBI can step in and take up the charge of investigation. We have staged dharna twice before the CBI office here and we want that the Central investigation agency initiate a free and fair probe into the Rishi murder mystery. The murderer should be handed out the punishment he deserves and be put in the jail,” said Pradhan.
He also demanded that the CBI arrest the
Baleswar MP for his alleged links with the Seashore chit fund company.
