Three arrested for self-immolation bid
Despite heavy police arrangement, a woman and her two sons allegedly attempted to immolate themselves in front of Odisha Assembly here on Thursday.
The security personnel present at the spot foiled their attempt and nabbed them near IG Park close to the State Assembly.
Sources said the woman who attempted self-immolation belongs to Kujanga area in Jagatsinghpur district. She took the step in protest against the police inaction in the ‘suspicious’ death of her son.
In November 2016, Jyoshna Rani Jena’s son Ullas was found dead under mysterious circumstances at a liquor off shop where he was working as a salesman.
