Four decomposed bodies recovered from jungle

In a horrific incident, the Ganjam police on Monday have retrieved four decomposed bodies, including that of a woman, from a jungle area close to Mankadchuan village under Badagad police limits of the district.

Suspecting the four — who had gone missing from the village on Friday — were brutally murdered, the police have arrested three villagers in this connection. The gruesome murders are apparently an outcome of an illicit relationship, said a release issued by the police headquarters here.

Sources said the bodies have been identified as that of Bhima Gomango, his wife Jaina and Chandaru Raita, his nephew Anand. The police have arrested one Basudev Gomango, believed to be the prime accused, and his associates Gouranga Mandal and Bipra Raita.
