An Odisha motor vehicle department constable dies from burn injuries a week after he was set on fire, multiple reports say. The injured officer succumbed to his condition after a prolonged hospitalization following the incident. Initial accounts described the case as a self-immolation attempt, but authorities later shift focus as the investigation develops. Police investigations now include suspected involvement of the constable’s wife and his brother-in-law. Both sources report that the wife and brother-in-law are under probe, with investigators examining the circumstances leading to the fire and the events before the officer sustained the burns. The case is treated as serious and remains under investigation, with officials assessing statements, possible motives, and how the incident happened. While the early framing differed, the current focus is on whether the officer’s death results from an external attack rather than a self-inflicted act. Further details are expected as the investigation proceeds.
