Kendrapara: Pattamundai Police on Sunday arrested two persons for manhandling Pattamundai tahsildar Dillip Kumar Sethi yesterday.

The Pattamundai Police arrested Udayabhanu Sahoo and Dola Gobinda Sahoo based on the complaint filed by the Tahsildar.

The concerned farmers had earlier informed the tahsildar about the existence of an illegal brick kiln on their farmland. They were facing a lot of problems due to the presence of the brick kiln as the vegetable crops grown by them used to get damaged due to the intense heat generated from the brick kiln.

The farmers also had urged the tahsildar to take action against the owner of the illegal brick kiln and shut down it.

Sethi in return had reportedly promised them to look into the matter and take the appropriate action. However, as he allegedly did not take any steps, both Udayabhanu and Dola barged into Sethi’s chamber at the Pattamundai yesterday and allegedly thrashed him.

Further investigation into the matter is underway.
