Cuttack: Mother-in-law Barsha Priyadarshini will not leave her house. The mother-in-law will fight the case while staying at home. This was informed by Ramakrishna Rath, Barsha’s lawyer. Husband Anubhav Mohanty yesterday questioned how the mother-in-law was staying at the house, which was accused of domestic violence. “If Barsha is a victim of domestic violence, we are harassing him, how is he still in my house?” “She was released this morning; she’s talked to her father and she’s fine. Police in riot gear stormed a rally on Friday, removing hundreds of protesters by truck.
Barsha called for protection, saying life was in danger. An appeal was lodged with his lawyer at Purighat police station. Two of Anubhav’s associates shot a video on their mobile phones despite Barsha’s reluctance to feed Barsha yesterday. Frightened, Barsha called police control room number 100 and complained about the incident. Two police officers of Purighat police station rushed to Nandi Sahi after DCP Pratik Singh directed IIC Rashmi Ranjan Sahu of Purighat police station to investigate the incident at around 4 pm. Later, Mahila Thana IIC Ansuya Nayak and another female staff member arrived and asked Barsha about the incident. Police were at Anubhav’s house for about two hours.
