Stating that he does not trust the Uttar Pradesh police investigation, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Monday demanded that a sitting High Court judge-monitored probe be conducted into the death of a woman in Chandauli during a police raid at her house. He also demanded that the police team under question be booked for murder.
On May 1, a police team reached Manrajpur village under Sayedraja police station jurisdiction in search of Kanhaiya Yadav, an accused under the Gangsters Act, with a non-bailable warrant. The police team was accused of allegedly beating to death his daughter Nisha.
Subsequently, an FIR was registered against the SHO and other police personnel for culpable homicide not amounting to murder, voluntarily causing hurt and house-trespass after preparation for hurt, assault or wrongful restraint.
