BHUBANESWAR: Three days passed, but the Commissionerate Police are yet to arrest the culprits in connection with the murder of an elderly woman Jyoshna Devi and attack on her husband at Acharya Vihar in the city on Thursday night. Investigation into the matter is on and the police are interrogating different people who are directly connected with the family members.
Deceased Jyoshna Devi’s husband
retired superintendent engineer Kunjabihari Panigrahy, who was brutally
attacked by the miscreants, is going under treatment in a private hospital in
city and his condition is very critical, doctors said. The only witness of the
incident is in coma which added more challenge to the police to trace out the
culprits.
The police have interrogated the
hostel boys who were the tenants of Panigrahy. Even they have interrogated some
other persons working in Panigrahy’s hostel. On Saturday the police had told
the students, who were living in the hostel run by Panigrahy, to not to leave
the hostel without notice. Investigation is continuing into the case, no arrest
has been made so far in the case, the police sources said.
On the other hand, the members of
the Acharya Vihar Development Council called a meeting to discuss about the
security of the senior citizens living in the area. Some police officers and
some retired elderly people were present in the meeting. President of the
council said the police administration should give emphasis on the security of
the senior citizens immediately otherwise they would take the issue into the
street.
It may be noted that on Saturday the
senior citizens living in the city alone met the Police Commissioner to discuss
about their security. As their children are living outside, they are living
alone and some anti-socials are taking benefit out of their loneliness.
