AGARTALA, Aug 15 (TIWN): Road blockade had hit the travellers on Independence Day when locals of Bordowali once again blocked National Highway at Drop Gate demanding justice for Tamal Das, who was killed by Police Officer's nephew and it was alleged that the Police Officer himself was involved in that murder. The agitation held after Tamal's dead body reached in Agartala from Kolkata.

Even though police have arrested both of the accused, the locals had blocked national highway as they couldn't believe that the Police Officer Ajay Sukla Das was actually arrested.

SDPO Ajay Kumar Das who was present on spot told media, the blockade was unnecessary as both the accused are already arrested. He further urged public to keep faith on the administration.

The main accused Tushar Saha was arrested long back and already in Jail Custody and recently his uncle who is the Police Officer at AD Nagar PS was also arrested. 

The incident took place Friday evening when is Tamal Das, S/O-Kamal Das, resident of Kabiraj Tilla. was called by Tushar Saha and beaten over his head. For two days Tamal left in coma and on Tuesday he breathed his last.

Students of Bordowali School and locals have twice blocked National Highway at Agartala Drop Gate on Sunday demanding "Justice for Tamal". 

School students said, "Tamal was called by Ajay Sukla Das and his nephew Tushar Saha and planwise they had beaten him to coma, whereas he could beat Tamal in other parts of the body. Tamal went for tuition, from where he was called in the police's quarter. After beating him, the Police Officer gave Rs. 5000 to the friends of Tushar and asked to send him to GB hospital saying nothing will happen to Tamal".
