In the small village of Bhismagiri, located in the Ganjam district, a disturbing incident took place on a peaceful Sunday afternoon. A young man, who was said to be the adopted son of the victim, attacked his foster-father with a surgical blade and slit his throat during a heated family dispute. The injured man, identified as Simanchal Sahu, was immediately taken to the Digapahandi Community Health Centre where he is currently receiving treatment.
According to medical reports, his condition is critical and he is fighting for his life. Eyewitnesses claim that the altercation between Simanchal and his adopted son, Kuna Sahu, erupted around 1 pm. It is believed that the two had been having ongoing disputes for some time now.
However, things took a violent turn when Kuna, in a fit of rage, grabbed a surgical blade and attacked his father, leaving him severely injured. It is heart-wrenching to learn that Simanchal had no children of his own and had taken Kuna in as his adopted son. Kuna, who was the son of a relative from Jakar village, was welcomed into the family with open arms.
Sadly, this incident has left a dark mark on their relationship. After the attack, the injured man was rescued by concerned neighbors who were shocked to see him in such a bloody state. They rushed him to the nearby health center for immediate medical attention.
Upon receiving information about the incident, the Digapahandi police reached the hospital and began their preliminary inquiry. The accused, Kuna Sahu, managed to flee the scene before the police arrived. At the time of this report, no formal complaint had been filed at the police station.
However, the police have assured the public that they are conducting a thorough investigation to bring justice to the victim and his family. This tragic incident has left the entire village in a state of shock and disbelief. The peaceful atmosphere of Bhismagiri has been shattered by this senseless act of violence.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Simanchal Sahu and his loved ones, and we hope for his speedy recovery. May justice be served to the culprit and peace be restored in the community.
