State secretary of BJP Shardendu Tiwari has lodged a complaint with IG Rewa for the release of the witness to the attack on Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s Jan Ashirwad yatra in Churhat, held hostage by Leader of Opposition in the State Assembly Ajay Singh.
In the complaint, the allegations of pressurising the witness to change his statements have been made.
Tiwari in the complaint alleged that during the Chouhan’s Jan Ashirwad Yatra in Churhat on September 2, stone pelting and deadly attack occurred and Sandeep Chaturvedi was an eyewitness and recorded his statements with police, but Ajay Singh is continuously influencing Sandeep to change his statements.
It has also been alleged that Ajay Singh is trying to create problems in the investigation by pressuring the witness to change his statements.
Ajay Singh has presented Sandeep in front of media in the state capital where he revealed the truth regarding the incident but Sandeep has been forced to change his statements of witnessing the incident. In the media interaction Ajay Singh said Sandeep is in his custody and which makes it clear that Singh is trying to influence the witness and threatening t him to alter his statements. Tiwari has demanded IG to register case against Ajay Singh for keeping Sandeep captive and forcing him to change his statements.
