The Sarsuna police station in Kolkata has launched a comprehensive murder investigation following the grim discovery of a man's body late on Friday night. The victim has been identified as Bholanath Biswas, aged 39, whose lifeless body was found under suspicious circumstances, prompting immediate police action.
Discovery and Initial Response
According to official police reports, the investigation was triggered by an anonymous telephone tip-off received at approximately 10:55 PM. The caller alerted authorities to a man lying motionless near the western side of premises located on Bagpota Road, 1st Bye Lane in the Sarsuna area.
Upon arriving at the scene, officers discovered Biswas in a pool of blood, indicating severe trauma. He was swiftly transported to Vidyasagar State General Hospital for medical attention. Tragically, doctors at the hospital declared him brought dead upon arrival, confirming the fatal nature of the incident.
Legal Proceedings and Investigation Details
Based on a formal statement provided by a local witness, the Sarsuna police have officially registered a case under Sections 103(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

Investigators have conducted multiple witness examinations and made several seizures from the crime spot to gather evidence. Despite these efforts, no arrests have been made yet as the police continue to delve into the circumstances surrounding Biswas's death, focusing on uncovering any potential leads or motives.
