Lucknow: Another case
was filed against former Uttar Pradesh minister Raghuraj Pratap
Singh alias Raja Bhaiyya, the accused in killing of a village
headman and a police officer, Saturday when a prime eyewitness
accused him of intimidation and threatening his life.
The case was registered at the Sangramgarh police station in
Pratapgrah district after Diwakar Tripathi, a witness, said he had
been intercepted by bikeborne men who asked him to pull out of the
case or else he would be killed.
Following the threat, he approached the local police station where
a case was filed against the Kunda legislator under various
sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
Raja Bhaiyya had late Friday met Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav for
over 20 minutes during which he reiterated that he had no hand in
the killing of either the Balipur village pradhan Nanhe Yadav, his
brother Suresh or Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Zia-ul-Haq.
The meeting came close to the notice sent by the Central Bureau of
Investigation (CBI) which is probing the triple murder, to Raja
Bhaiyya. The agency has already grilled close associates of the
former minister and has questioned his cousin Akshay Pratap Singh
alias Gopal ji. Parveen Azad, widow of the slain cop had alleged
that Raja Bhaiyya had a hand in the killing of her husband.
Later, family members of the deceased village pradhan and his
brother had also alleged that Raja Bhaiyya was threatening them
not to name him in the case. They are staging a sit-in demanding
more security for themselves.
Raja Bhaiyya was not available for comments.
