Aditya Dash death case gets complicated; murder alleged

Bhubaneswar: A new twist has surfaced in the ongoing investigation of the suicide case of motivational speaker ‘Manab Premi’ Aditya Dash.  Members of Aditya’s organisation ‘Peoples for Service’ have lodged an FIR at GRP police Thursday, alleging Aditya’s death as a pre-planned murder and not suicide.

The GRP police has registered a murder case under section 302 and started a probe into the case.

However, Aditya’s post-mortem report which was released Thursday by GRP police revealed that he died due to grievous injuries on his head due to strong hit by the moving train.

On the other hand police seized a hand-written suicide note from Aditya’s diary Wednesday, in which he wrote, “No one is responsible for my death. I love my wife very much. The young generations have to make them strong to give a befitting reply to government”.

Notably, popular motivational speaker Aditya Dash’s body was found Tuesday on the railway tracks near the Lingaraj Temple Road station in this city. Aditya Dash was also popularly known as ‘Manab Premi Aditya Dash’ among youngsters. He was the founder of ‘People for Seva’ organisation.

Dash was a popular Youtuber with nearly 42,000 subscribers  to his account. He also had 81,000 followers on Facebook. His motivational speeches on both social platforms made him very popular. Dash was also known for his philanthropic activities. He had built an old age in the state capital as well.

Dash had married Bidyashree of Khapuria village in Cuttack district June 9. Sources said that there were no problems in their marital life.
