The Odia translation of the book “Who Killed Laxmanananda?” was released on Sept 19, 2018, by the illiterate wives of seven people languishing in jail for allegedly killing the Hindu religious leader. More than 50 journalists attended the function.

The book exposes Kandhamal fraud and travesty of justice with seven innocents languishing in jail. It exposes Hindu radical groups’ role in Kandhamal fraud and questions why seven innocent convicts are languishing in jail for ten years. A senior journalist Anto Akkara made a multi-media presentation to show how the nation was fooled by a conspiracy behind the murder of Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati in the Janmashtami night in 2008. It also explains why seven Christians – six illiterates including one mentally challenged – are in jail after being fraudulently convicted to life imprisonment.

The book brings to the fore the plight of seven prisoner.
