Sambalpur: A three-member team of the Burla Police reached Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology (VSSUT) student Chinmayi Priyadarshini Sahoo’s house in Balangir yet again to interrogate her family members over her mysterious death.

The police team reportedly questioned Chinmayi’s mother Labanga Sahoo and her sister over her death. The cops also showed certain documents pertaining to her death. This is the second time that the Burla Police investigated at the house of the deceased engineering student.

Meanwhile, Sambalpur Superintendent of Police (SP) B Gangadhar unfolded the mystery behind Chinmayi’s death, eight days after the incident.

The SP claimed that the police have the evidence of Chinmayi and her boyfriend Pritiman Dey were under the influence of alcohol when the mishap took place. However, the viscera report will confirm the same, he said.
