The 26-year-old Balasore sex scandal case, dating back to 1999, has seen a recent development as the hearing process continues in the Special Track Court, Bhubaneswar. The main witness, Gaurishankar Panda, failed to appear in court due to health issues, leading the court to schedule the next hearing for May 6. The case involves allegations that a state-level athlete and college student was lured with job promises and subjected to attempted sexual assault by high-ranking officials and an associate lecturer. While the CBI has filed a chargesheet naming over 25 witnesses, the victim continues her long-standing battle for justice. https://sambad.in/metro/balasore-sex-scandal-case-11849489 #creator program
