CBI recovers DSP ammunition belt
In a major breakthrough, the CBI, probing the multiple murder cases of Kunda, on Thursday recovered blood-stained ammunition belt, suspected to be of the slain DSP Zia-ul-Haq, during routine searches in Walipur village in Pratpgarh.
Sources in the agency said, “Recovery of blood-stained ammunition belt is a crucial evidence. Now it will be sent for forensic examinations.” The agency has already recovered the service revolver of slain DSP Zia-ul-Haq, who was shot dead in Kunda in Pratapgarh on March 2 following violence in Walipur village. The CBI has registered four FIRs in connection with the killings of DSP, village head Nanhe Yadav and his brother Suresh Yadav during violence at Walipur village in Pratapgarh district on March 2. The special crime unit of the CBI (Delhi) is probing multiple murder cases of Kunda.
“The agency officials are questioning relatives of Nanhe Yadav as the blood-stained ammunition belt, suspected to be of the slain DSP, recovered from near the house of younger brother of the village head. The agency officials are also scrutinising the call details of Nanhe Yadav’s brothers,” sources said. Haq was allegedly killed after he reached the residence of Yadav on learning that the latter had been shot dead at a tea shop. The CBI has so far questioned two relatives of Yadav as part of its probe.
The CBI officials have already arrested several accused named in the murder case of village head. Only one accused, Ajit Kumar Singh, is yet to be nabbed. If required the agency officials may seek custodial interrogation of certain suspects in connection with their probe related to multiple murder cases, sources added.
The agency has also booked former minister of Uttar Pradesh Raja Bhaiyya under murder charges in the killing of DSP. The CBI will soon call other accused, including Raja Bhaiyya, for questioning in connection with the cases at the agency headquarters in Delhi. Possibility of conducting lie-detection and brain-mapping tests on certain accused can not be ruled out. They may be subjected to narco-analysis test also, if required, sources added.
