Despite rounding-up the shooter and mastermind of the grisly killing of NIA officer Tanzil Ahmed, the UP Police suddenly developed a cold feet soon after DGP Javeed Ahmed landed in Bijnore and visted the crime scene at Sahaspur village.
The decision to unravel the murder mystery has been delayed as the victim’s family expressed reservation to the theory floated by the probe agencies. The family strongly insisted that the killing was a result of action taken by the officer against terror groups and not due to his personal enmity with criminals.
Bijnore police is now trying to convince the family with facts which surfaced during the probe. Sources said that even if the family disagrees, the investigators are set to go ahead with the findings.
“We have some important leads after quizzing over a hundred suspects. Several teams were camping in Bijnore, Delhi, Aligarh, Bareilly and efforts are underway to quiz suspects or summon those who can help crack the case. But nothing concrete could be said at the moment,” asserted DGP Javeed Ahmad after reviewing the probe.
