Police says Shobhit’s friends hiding facts
Investigators probing the murder case of Shobhit Modi, who was stabbed to death outside his south Delhi residence last week, are suspecting that his three friends, including two girls, are “trying to hide certain aspects” that could crack the murder mystery.
The police said the three friends, including his girlfriend, were with him at the DLF Promenade Mall on Thursday night when Shobhit was murdered, “They are under our scanner. So far, five of his friends have been questioned and two of them have been given a clean chit,” a source said.
The investigators have so far questioned over 150 local criminals and historysheeters of three police stations — Vasant Kunj (south), Vasant Kunj (north) and Vasant Vihar. The crime branch also started investigating the matter on Monday but so far any breakthrough has evaded the police.
“All his friends have been questioned and re-questioned in the matter but no concrete lead has emerged in the murder case so far. After conducting four rounds of questioning, two of them, including Shobhit’s one male college friend, have been found innocent. However, we still believe that the other three, including Shobhit’s girlfriend, are hiding some crucial points, which might help us in investigations and take it forward. One of them is on our radar and his questioning is going on,” the official said.
