‘Clarify links with murder accused’

Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot made serious allegations against the BJP of having links with the accused involved in the murder of Kanhaiya Lal and asserted BJP should issue a clarification.

The tailor was beheaded by Riyaz Akhtari and Ghouse Mohammad for supporting Nupur Sharma. “The relationship of the accused with BJP in this case is known to everyone. It was found that the accused lived in a rented place, owned by another Muslim person,” said the CM. Gehlot asked the BJP to respond to the allegations of its links with one of the accused .

He asked the BJP to come clean on the allegations that they helped one of the accused by requesting the police to drop the complaint against him as he is a BJP worker. “Owner of the house had alleged that they (accused who beheaded Kanhaiya) were not paying rent, he approached the police for it. But BJP workers started calling them (landlord) stating they were BJP workers and warning the landlord of not troubling the party worker,” added Gehlot.

Photographs of the main accused, Akhtari, with some BJP leaders, including the Leader of Opposition Gulab Chand Kataria, emerged on social media, prompting the Congress to allege that Akhtari was a BJP worker. However, the BJP has denied the allegations.
