TV actress arrested for instigating colleague's suicide

Pralipta Priyadarshini Samal

In a rather shocking turn of events, popular Odiya actress Jessy aka Pralipta Priyadarshini Samal has been arrested for instigating colleague Ranjit Patnaik (Raja) to commit suicide. 

According to reports, the actress has been sent to judicial custody for 14 days. "Death of Raja was a case of suicide. The actor committed suicide due to instigation or abetment. We found that deceased actor's friend had taunted him in connection with his professional failure," Balasore SP Niti Sekhar told reporters.

The two had gone to a musical program where Jessy was invited, while Raja tagged along with her. When actor Chandan failed to turn up for the event, the organizers asked Raja to replace him. Seems like Jessy was paid over twenty thousand for her work and Raja was given only about two thousand, states the report. 

"The woman actor verbally abused the victim over his capability and self-respect. The altercation between the duo reached a flashpoint and Raja told the driver to stop the car," the SP said, adding, "he had got out of the car and climbed over the parapet of the bridge and jumped over leading to his death.” 

Police registered a case and started investigating after Raja’s family suspected of foul play. AS the events unfold, we will bring you the latest from Balasore district.
