KATHUA, Feb 12: The activists of Hindu Ekta Manch (HEM) held a meeting at Hiranagar today and warned the authorities of harassing the members of the community.
The Manch headed by advocate Vijay Sharma reiterated that the case of the murder of a minor girl be handed over to CBI to ascertain the facts as they are not satisfied with SIT probe as first the police has arrested a juvenile and later an SPO. Now two youth are being harassed and asked that the needle of suspicion falls on them also.
The meeting, which was attended by the prominent people of the area including Sarpanchs and Panchs of various villages said that first police framed a story that the juvenile tried to rape the girl and later killed her with stones and now another story is being floated and more people being arrested.
The meeting said that to ascertain the facts the case be handed over to CBI as they have lost faith in the police which is day in and day out changing the stories.
It may be recalled that a body of eight year minor girl who was missing for a week was found in the forests of Rasana in Hirangar belt on January 17 evoking a protest from the minorities. Later the police arrested a juvenile saying that it has solved the murder case.
However some days later a SPO was arrested in connection with the murder and now two youth are also being questioned by the police.
