The police detained unidentified bike-borne assailants on Friday who shot a man to the dead on Thursday in Bhilwara.
“Both accused in the Bhilwara murder case have been detained by police,” Superintendent of Police (SP) Adarsh Sidhu said.
Earlier on Thursday, bike-borne assailants shot a man to the dead and another one got injured. The victims have been identified as Tony and Ibrahim.
Meanwhile, the police believe it is a case of the revenge killing of the murder of accused brother Adarsh Tapadia which took place six months ago.
Moreover, Ibrahim succumbed to injuries and Tony is undergoing treatment.
“The accused have been identified and raids are being conducted to nab them. Prima facie, it looks like a revenge murder as a murder had happened almost six months back wherein the victims of this incident were accused in the former incident. The family members of the victim in the previous case are involved in today’s case,” said Inspector General (IG) of Ajmer range Rupendra Singh.
Talking about the incident IG Singh said the investigation is going on and it’s going in the right direction.
“The details would be revealed only after the police investigation, the investigation is going in the right direction,” Singh said.
However, the internet services for the next 48 hours in the Bhilwara district have been suspended by the Ajmer Divisional Commissioner who urged the people to cooperate to maintain law and order.
“Important clues gathered in this case. I appeal to people to cooperate to maintain law and order,” Bhilwara SP said.
Furthermore, a job for the family members of the deceased and Rs 10 lakh for the injured has been demanded by the President of Muslim Sadbhav Sewa Samiti, Bhilwara.
“This isn’t tolerable. We demand from officials to understand our sentiments else there’ll be a protest. We demand the accused to be arrested, a family member of the deceased be given a job and Rs 50 lakhs to his family, and Rs 10 lakhs to the injured,” the president said.
Further investigation into the matter is underway.
