Bhubaneswar: The Commissionerate Police on Thursday submitted report over the much-hyped engineering student Asutosh Mohanty alias Rishi death case before Odisha Human Rights Commission (OHRC) stating that the student died due to excessive consumption of alcohol and drug overdose.
In its report, the police stated that no clue was found from Rishi’s mobile phone that was sent to forensic laboratory for investigation.

She had also asked the police to bring Rishi’s friends, roommates and his girlfriend under the purview of investigation.
