Nimapara: Police arrested a dreaded criminal, Bhagirathi Pradhan alias Bhagu, after an encounter on the outskirts of Nimapara in Odisha’s Puri district late on Thursday.
Acting on a tipoff that Bhagu was on the way towards Pipili, a joint squad of Pipili police and Talabania Outpost intercepted him near Pipili-Nimapara overbridge. Bhagu opened fire on the police in a bid to escape. He, however, sustained bullet injuries in his left leg when the police retaliated.
