A New Photo Showing Gopal & Naba Das In Close Range Surfaces

Bhubaneswar: Weeks after former Odisha Minister Naba Das’ assassination, a photograph of accused Gopal Das surfaced on Monday giving an interesting twist to the high-profile crime.

The photograph which is making round on social media shows Gopal aiming his weapon at the Minister just moments before the latter’s murder.

The photograph clearly shows, Gopal Das, taking aim at Naba Das from a close range soon after the minister alighted from his car at Gandhi Chhak in Brajarajnagar in Jharsuguda district on January 29 afternoon.

Although the weapon (Gopal Das’ service revolver) is not visible owing to the crowd at the venue (crime scene), the photograph shows the accused right in front of Naba Das with both his hand raised and aimed at the minister, supposedly taking aim at the minister.

At the same time, supporters of Naba Das can also be seen in the photograph welcoming the minister with garlands on his arrival at Gandhi Chhak in Brajarangnagar.
