MORE than four days after the charred body of a 20-year-old college girl was discovered at a village under Pattamundai rural police station in Kendrapara district, police remain without a breakthrough though CCTV footage from the neighbourhood might throw some new light in the case.

Investigation, police said, is still on to pinpoint whether it was a case of suicide or murder. "Prima facie it seems to be a case of self-immolation. However, we are narrowing down on the case but no concrete conclusion can be drawn yet. Investigators are examining multiple angles, including the deceased's personal life and her call records from mobile phone," Kendrapara SP Siddhartha Kataria said.

Kataria said the case could be solved soon. A team of police is also examining the footage of a CCTV installed near the house of the deceased.
