Commissionerate Police Cracks Down on Murder Accused’s Illegal Businesses in Bhubaneswar
In a decisive move against criminal encroachment, the Commissionerate Police of Bhubaneswar demolished two illegal business units operated by Tulu Mohanty, the prime accused in the April 2025 murder of builder Sasmit Biswal (alias Chinmay).
The demolition, carried out on Saturday under court orders, targeted a ration shop and a fast food outlet set up on encroached government land near Padhansahi under Airfield Police Station jurisdiction.
Mohanty, who had posed as a legitimate businessman, is alleged to be a key conspirator in the planned killing of Biswal. The police have so far arrested six individuals in connection with the case, with several suspects still at large. Authorities have intensified their search operations to apprehend the remaining accused.
The demolition is part of a broader crackdown on criminal activities and illegal occupation of public property.
Commissionerate Police emphasised that strict legal action will be taken against anyone found operating businesses on encroached land or involved in organised crime.
This action sends a strong message about the consequences of flouting the law and reinforces the administration’s commitment to upholding public order and justice.
