Criminal investigations in Odisha

Overview

Police in Odisha are investigating multiple incidents involving deceased individuals and skeletal remains. In the Bargarh district, authorities exhumed the skeletal remains of 52-year-old Amrut Barge from agricultural land following allegations of murder. The investigation was initiated after Barge’s wife claimed a villager, Rajani Sahu, had manipulated her into silence regarding the circumstances of Barge’s death in September.

In separate incidents, authorities are investigating the discovery of a headless body in the Kalahandi district, identified as 30-year-old Raju Bag. The victim reportedly sustained multiple injuries from a sharp weapon. Additionally, in the Nabarangpur district, reports emerged of a desecrated grave belonging to a 27-year-old woman. Local villagers noted signs of potential occult rituals at the site, though law enforcement has not officially confirmed the motives or circumstances.
