Cuttack: The ongoing cease-work agitation of the lawyers across Odisha against police excess will continue till September 24.
“A decision to continue the strike was taken at the general council meeting of the Orissa High Court Bar Association here on Thursday. Further course of action will be taken after another meeting scheduled to be convened on September 24,” informed the association president, Srikant Nayak.
On August 30, members of the association had resorted to a cease-work agitation protesting against the alleged assault on a lawyer at Nua Bazaar here.
The Commissionerate Police had suspended three personnel, including two constables and a havildar, for excesses the same day.
Members of Bhubaneswar Bar Association had also staged a road blockade by burning tyres in front of the SDJM court here, disrupting vehicular movement on Bhubaneswar-Puri road demanding immediate action against the police personnel.
The Cuttack Bar Association members too had followed suit. A group of agitating lawyers had allegedly set a PCR van on fire during the agitation in front of the RDC office in Cuttack.
