Today we talk about Bitti Mohanty, who was sentenced to seven years in a rape case with a German girl in the year 2006. Then on November 20 this year, he took parole saying that his mother was ill and fled. Bitti Mohanty disappeared on 4 December 2006 and then started a new life under a new name. In which first he became a teacher, then a student and later he became a bank worker. During this, he also took the help of many fake papers.
Bitti Mohanty first reached Puttaparthi in Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh in 2007. Here he introduced himself as Raghav Ranjan and said that he is an engineering graduate from the Kalinga Institute of Technology, Odisha. Her father Rajiv Ranjan is a landlord. He first taught children in a small institution in Puttaparthi, then for about 18 months he worked as a teacher in a college.
Bitti Mohanty alias Raghav Ranjan left Puttaparthi after leaving the job in the year 2010. He then moved to Kannur, Kerala and did his MBA from Chinmaya Institute of Technology. Actually Bitti’s father B. Of. Mohanty was an IPS officer and Bitti Mohanty was also smart in reading and writing. He stayed in the college hostel while completing his MBA and then became a Probationary Officer (PO) in 2012 after clearing the IBPS exam.
During his job in this bank, he was in the Madadi branch of State Bank of Travancore. Raghav Ranjan lived here with his partner in a rented house. After the arrest, the grocery shop owner under the house of Bitti Mohanty/Raghav Ranjan told the police that he often used to come to their place to get Chivda of Odisha. According to him, he considered Raghav Ranjan to be a young man from Andhra Pradesh who was very calm and straightforward.
In the midst of all this, when Bitti Mohanty / Raghav Ranjan was caught, many stories came to the fore. It was said that Raghav had a relationship with a young woman and she had sent an anonymous letter to her bank branch. In which Bitti Mohanty / Raghav Ranjan’s past was written. It was told that the girl wanted to marry him, but after the Delhi gangrape incident, Bitti Mohanty’s picture was played on some TV channels.
It is said that this anonymous letter was sent to Bitti Mohanty’s bank branch only after seeing these pictures. Which was sent by the bankers to their main branch in Thiruvananthapuram. Only after this he was taken into custody by the Kannur police after investigation. At the same time, after Raghav was caught, his associates described him as very calm and disciplined. Though Raghav Ranjan had earlier denied to consider himself as Bitti Mohanty, he broke down after hours of interrogation.
The Kannur police then informed the Jaipur police and all the evidence led to the identification of Bitti Mohanty. He was then sent to Jaipur jail on 9 March 2013. Law experts believed that if he had followed the sentence properly, he would have been released in so many days. Apart from this, because of Bitti Mohanty, her father was also removed from the job.
