The ghost of a KGBAV girl student of Meral village under Paton police station haunts some political forces more than the family, said sources.
Paton police had found this girl’s body hanging from a babul tree on April 29 and had serious suspicions about the hanging then and when came the post mortem report police’s suspicions about the hanging proved true said SP Palamu Ajay Linda.
It was death first by strangulation and then to pass it off as death by hanging the girl’s body was made to hang loosely from the babul tree said Linda.
The SP said the police without wasting any precious time made this case registered under section 302 and 201 of IPC. Police began its investigation with all angles in mind.
The SP said the post mortem report said one thing more vital. The girl had no sign of rape/ gang rape Linda reiterated, who added this ‘unhappened’ thing too is shamelessly floated with all vigour now causing huge infamy to the girl’s family as well.
Sources said the family of the girl did nothing between April 29 and May 31 but on June 01 there erupted a violence against police wherein government vehicles were damaged and officials were mistreated. Police said the stir was a planned one and deliberate.
Sources said a kin of the girl said to be in police in Bihar had come to Meral and then said SP Linda this June 01 ruckus was staged with the help of activists of AISA and others to defame police that it was not making any breakthrough in this case and the agitators pressing police also wanted 3 persons to be sent to jail in murder case.
Linda said, “We do not believe in arrest of fake people. We go by evidence circumstantial and material.”
He said the fact of the matter is that police have now reasons to understand that the death of this girl is somewhat related to family honour/ dignity and when the bereaved family got this inkling that our police are inching towards this line of investigation stir against police was launched on June 01 to put police in poor light and change the course of investigation.
Now police have lodged a criminal case against those indulged in June 01 violence and therein the case figures a young and firebrand girl which has again stirred a fresh bout of smearing campaign against Paton police. PNS Linda said, “We will crack this case but cannot give any time line for it.”
