The boy, Rajkumar Jena, who was studying in Class VII at Praharajpur under Pattamundai police station area, was abducted on March 4. The abductors had demanded Rs 5 lakh ransom from his family. They hail from Pattamundai area, but were staying in Bhubaneswar.

The Pattamundai Police should be held responsible for the murder of the boy, as they took the complaint lightly and started investigation only after 24 hours. That allowed the kidnappers to kill the boy and flee from the area.
