Bhubaneswar: Odisha Human Rights Commission (OHRC) on Monday directed the Crime Branch and Southern Range RDC to conduct a probe into the death of criminal Balaram Mallick alias Chagala in a recent police encounter.
OHRC has asked the officials concerned to submit a report within six weeks of conducting a thorough investigation to ascertain the circumstances under which the criminal was allegedly gunned down by the cops.
