Bhubaneswar: In a fast turn of events, the police have reportedly detained Bardhan Toppo, the accused driver of arrested Anup Sai who allegedly aided the ex-MLA in the heinous crime.
Toppo was reportedly taken into custody following brief questioning from his rented house in Bagarachaka village.
As per the latest reports, he is being interrogated by the cops at an undisclosed location.
On the other hand, Bardhan’s family members refuted the allegations and say Bardhan “is innocent”.
Notably, Chhattisgarh’s Raigarh police on Saturday unraveled details about former MLA of Brajrajnagar Anup Sai’s role in a double-murder case.
Raigarh SP Santosh Singh said while Sai cleverly avoided police to present himself before the cops for investigation even after several notices, police kept him under close scanner for the last 6 months.
Addressing media Singh said the deceased woman has been identified as Kalpana Das (32) were in live-in relationship and staying together from 2012 to 2016.
However, when Kalpana proposed him for marriage and allegedly asked her share in his property, Sai refused and allegedly plotted to eliminate Kalpana and her 14-year-old daughter Pravati Das.
Sai reportedly confessed to his crimes and stated that he was assisted by a driver of an SUV who killed the duo, claimed Singh.
Later, the accused ran the four-wheeler over the dead bodies for several times in a bid to destroy the identities and evidence.
