NHRC issues warrants against Puri collector, TPCODL CEO in six-year-old boy’s elctrocution case
PURI: The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) on Wednesday issued bailable warrants against the Puri collector and TPCODL CEO for failing to comply with its repeated directives in a case involving a six-year-old boy who lost his hand due to electrocution.
The incident took place around three years ago, when the boy, then three years old, came in contact with an open transformer while studying in the anganwadi centre of Sorisiapada village under Puri’s Gop block. The kid suffered critical injuries and his hand had to be amputated during treatment.
