Khurda: Body of Sheikh Suleman, a history-sheeter, was found dumped on the roadside at Chhanagiri village under Jankia police limits in Khurda district Tuesday morning.
It were some local people that first spotted the body lying by the roadside in the morning. They immediately informed the police about it. After a while, a team from Jankia police station reached the spot and recovered the body for post mortem. The cops have launched an investigation.
Even as the reason behind the death is yet to be established, the cops suspect Suleman was murdered over a past enmity. He had several criminal cases pending against him.
According to local residents, since he had criminal antecedents, he had developed enmities with many. In order to settle an old score, some of his enemies may have murdered him somewhere else and then dumped the body by the roadside.
The police have detained two persons in this connection, it was learnt.
