Panda’s murder: Lawyers shun court work

The cease-work call, given by OSBC, was observed by all bar associations across the state demanding justice for Panda, also a senior BJP leader.

Stating that Panda was elected to OSBC with the highest number of votes, council president Sitanshu Mohan Dwivedi demanded immediate arrest of culprits, adequate compensation to the victim’s family, a high-level inquiry into the incident and implementation of the Advocate Protection Act.

Panda, 50, was shot dead by two unknown bike-borne miscreants while he was standing near his house at Brahma Nagar of Berhampur town Monday night. He sustained a bullet injury on right side of chest and was declared dead by doctors at MKCG Medical College and Hospital in Berhampur.
