Follow Newsd On  

The Odisha Police have reinstated four out of the five personnel suspended over allegations of torturing an army officer and assaulting his fiancée.

The case stemmed from a road rage complaint filed on September 15, 2024.

Inspector-in-charge Dinakrushna Mishra remains suspended, according to the order by DGP Y B Khurania released Monday night. The suspensions of a sub-inspector, two assistant sub-inspectors, and a constable were annulled.

The Odisha government initiated a judicial and crime branch investigation into the incident. The Judicial Commission, led by retired Justice Chittaranjan Dash, submitted a comprehensive report to the Home Department in March.
