Let us tell you that Indian National Lok Dal state president and former MLA Nafe Singh Rathi was shot dead near Barahi Road railway gate in Bahadurgarh on 25 February. Four youths were among the attackers. In this case, the police had registered a first information report against 12 people on the basis of the statement of deceased Nafe Singh's son Jitendra. Initially, the case was investigated by Bahadurgarh police. SIT was also formed. But on the demand of the victim's family, the state government handed over this case to the CBI for investigation. The CBI has been investigating this case for about 3 weeks.
Former MLA Naresh Kaushik said that he never had any dispute with Nafe Singh Rathi or his family. But the victim's family included his name among the accused due to his political rivalry. Kaushik said that Rathi's murder is highly condemnable. CBI is investigating this case impartially and whoever is the culprit will definitely be punished. After interrogation, accused Ramesh Rathi and Satish Nambardar also presented their side of the case before the journalists.
