The Hubballi Dharwad Police Commissionerate has provided a gunman to Neha’s father and municipal councillor Niranjan Hiremath, while also posting two police personnel at his residence.
The move comes a day after Chief Minister Siddaramaiah visited the Hiremaths. During the Chief Minister’s visit, Mr. Hiremath conveyed to him that he faced death threat from unknown people in the aftermath of his daughter’s murder.
Mr. Hiremath had said that on the pretext of condoling the death, a few suspicious people entered his house and video-graphed his daughter’s bedroom. The developments indicated threat to the family members and so a detailed investigation should be carried out, he had urged.
