Murder conspiracy: White bolero seized, driver arrested in Titilagarh case

In a major breakthrough in the Titilagarh murder conspiracy case, the Bolangir police have seized the white Bolero vehicle allegedly used in the crime and arrested its driver, identified as Chunu Behera. The vehicle was recovered near Kantabanji, police sources confirmed on Thursday.

The incident traces back to September 28, when prominent businessman Shivlal Jain was found dead in what initially appeared to be a road accident near the BDCC Bank Square in Titilagarh. However, subsequent investigations have revealed that the incident was not an accident but a premeditated murder.

According to police sources, the alleged mastermind behind the killing is rival businessman Ankur Agrawal, who has already been arrested. Investigators believe Agrawal orchestrated the entire conspiracy, making the incident appear as a road accident to mislead authorities.

The police have also registered another case against Agrawal at the Sindhekela Police Station and have applied for his police remand to further probe the motive and extent of the conspiracy.
