Dhenkanal: Miscreants hurled crude bombs at the house of the newly-elected Chairperson of Dhenkanal Municipality Jayanti Patra on Saturday night. The incident took place at around 1:30 am last night, she reported to the police. A police team rushed to the spot and carried out a preliminary investigation.
Earlier on March 30, a group of rowdies showed up near Patra’s house and hurled abuses at her. They also resorted to blank firing. “The police are yet to arrest people involved in the incident on March 30. That is why the miscreants dared to carry out a similar act,” she said.
