Police Deny Rumours Linking Accused to MP
Police also denied rumours circulating regarding the accused Yash Bidhuri’s alleged relation to sitting MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri. “There is a rumour that the arrested accused is the grandson of sitting MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri. Arrested accused Yash is not a relative of Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, nor his grandson,” police said.
Victim’s Father Demands Justice
Reacting to the incident, the deceased teenager’s father, Sunil Kumaar, alleged negligence by the administration and demanded justice for his son. “I had one son. He was shot for no reason. I want to tell the administration that what happened to my son can also happen to yours,” Sunil Kumar told ANI.
Alleging a lack of support from authorities, he said, “The administration is not helping us with anything. They are receiving support because of being underage or being rich.”
Further investigation into the firing incident is underway.
