Manhunt on for those who broke into cop's house
Rourkela: Plantsite police have continued manhunt to nab miscreants who looted gold and silver ornaments worth around Rs 9 lakh from a police havildar's quarters located behind the police station, two days ago. The incident took place at the residence of Subrata Hota, a havildar at the Reserve Office, who lives with his family in the police colony. According to the complaint filed on Saturday night, the theft was discovered when Hota and his family returned from Lathikata block around 5:30 pm to find their main door lock broken and valuables missing from their almirah. A special police team has been formed to investigate the case. Several suspects were detained on Monday for interrogation, but no arrests have been made so far. Police and scientific team visited Hota's residence on Sunday to collect evidence. However, the absence of CCTV cameras in the colony and nearby areas has hampered the investigation. "Our police team is on the job to identify and apprehend the miscreants," said Brijesh Kumar Rai, DIG of police, western range, Rourkela.

The incident came to light after Havildar Subrata Hota of the Reserve Office (RO) lodged a complaint on Saturday night.
