Bhadrak: Body of the man, who had jumped into the Baitarani with his two and a half years old daughter, was recovered by Odisha Disaster Rapid Action Force on Friday morning.
According to sources, the body was found in Budha river near Trilochanpur in Jajpur district. However, the toddler is yet to be traced.
Chandan Sahu, a resident of Balipokhari village in Bhandari Pokhari police station limits, had suddenly stopped his two-wheeler on Akhuapada bridge over the Baitarani river around 9 pm on September 27, and jumped off along with his daughter, leaving behind his slippers, mobile phone and wallet.
He was reportedly under mental stress following the death of his wife, who allegedly died by suicide at Surat a month ago. “After having dinner, the father and daughter went out to get some things from a nearby shop. Later, he called home around 8.30 pm and said that he had decided to die by suicide,” his younger brother Jayanta Sahu told the media.
