An unidentified vehicle hit Sagar’s bike from behind at Nua Palli Square near Bhatakumarada and the officer sustained injury on his head. The locals rushed him to MKCG Medical College and Hospital in Berhampur. But he succumbed on the way.

His body was handed over to the family members after post-mortem. The villagers and family members took the body in a procession to cremation ground to perform the last rites of the 31-year-old military officer, the sources said.
