Berhampur: A man was found hanging in the official residence of an Auxiliary Nurse Midwife (ANM) at Kudutuli village under K Nuagaon police station in Odisha’s Kandhamal district on Monday.
While the deceased has been identified as Jagannath Behera of Banamalipur, the ANM was rescued with head injuries and admitted to a hospital.
Sources said the incident occurred when Jagannath, who knew the ANM for past four years, traveled to her house from Bhubaneswar in a motorcycle. Neighbours rushed to the house on hearing commotion and found Jagannath’s body and the ANM lying in a pool of blood.
On being informed, K Nuagaon police rushed the ANM to a local hospital and sent Jagannath’s body for autopsy.
