Addressing the brief ceremony, Pranab Sarkar expressed deep concern over the lack of justice even nine years after Bhowmik’s murder. “It is extremely unfortunate that the perpetrators have not been punished,” he said, urging the government to ensure exemplary punishment for those responsible for the daylight killing.
