Sarkar was introduced to Durba in Chennai during 2010 – 11. He lost touch with her and connected with her during the pandemic on an online platform. That’s when he heard about Durba’s bereavement in June 2019. “She mentioned about the inappropriate documentation by police and other State bodies about Arka and how he was not treated properly even after his demise. Shockingly, Arka was depicted as a thief. There was no empathy for him being a victim of bullying,” he added.
