Pratima Coutinho receives death threats

MARGAO:

Social activist Pratima Coutinho has on Wednesday lodged a complaint with the Margao police alleging threat to her life by an unknown person.

Pratima, who addressed her complaint to the Margao police as well as the district police Chief, claimed that the unknown person has been sending her whatsapp messages, starting with a message sent at the dead of night cautioning her not to act smart.

She said the unknown person then warned her that she would be finished if she acted smart. “I have attached the whatsapp number of the person as well as the chats with my complaint lodged with the police. I hope that the police would take action”, she said.

Saying she has been participating in so many agitations and taking up issues affecting the citizens, Pratima said the police should zero in on the accused person and bring him to book.
