Ankita Bhandari, who was murdered by a BJP leader’s son in Uttarakhand, was cremated on Sunday evening in a day of protests across Uttarakhand. The father of the deceased woman questioned the government’s decision to demolish the resort of the accused, and termed it “destruction of evidence”.
The police said no stone had been left unturned to get the accused the “harshest punishment”.
“The police’s bulldozer action has tampered with the evidence. Also, we are not satisfied with the post-mortem report of our daughter. I also demand the fast-track trial of the accused. Only after all this, we will cremate our daughter,” Virendra Bhandari, father of the victim, had earlier told presspersons.
