Cow Smuggling and Murshidabad Connection
In the past few days, cow smuggling through Sambalpur roads has increased. As a result, the police previously encountered and confronted two cattle smugglers. Moreover, two individuals were recently arrested from Jharsuguda for their involvement in the Murshidabad incident. Following these events, the alert level in Sambalpur has been raised even further.
Infiltration Fears Through Labor Channels
Many laborers from the Murshidabad area are currently working in Sambalpur, mostly in construction-related jobs. Because of this, the police suspect that some criminals might be using this route to infiltrate the city. Therefore, they have blocked all major entry routes into Sambalpur. At the same time, they are thoroughly inspecting every vehicle entering the area to prevent any unlawful entry.
