Bhubaneswar, April 23: In a shocking incident, a police constable was seriously injured after being attacked by an accused inside the Muribahal police station in Odisha’s Balangir district. The incident has raised serious concerns about security protocols within police stations.

The accused, identified as Magasir Parabhoi from Dholmandal village under Turekela police limits, reportedly assaulted Constable Sudama Nag with a wooden log late at night. The attack occurred while Parabhoi was in custody for his alleged involvement in a kidnapping case.
