Images of Shivkumar, Reddy set afire

Amravati: Even as the rural police handed over the probe in RFO Deepali Chavan suicide case to the rural sub divisional police officer Poonam Patil, Harisal villagers on Sunday burnt images of arrested DyCF Vinod Shivkumar and shunted APCCF and field director, MTR, Shrinivas Reddy in front of the victim’s official residence in the presence of MP Navneet Rana and her husband, MLA Ravi Rana.
Villagers shouted slogans against the duo and also demanded Reddy’s arrest.
Meanwhile, rural SP Hari Balaji told TOI that no offence or FIR has been registered against Reddy even though Chavan’s husband has filed a complaint. “We have received a complaint and it is being thoroughly looked into,” said an officer of Dharni police station.
Shivkumar’s police custody remand ends on Monday. The case was being investigated by SDPO Sanjay Kale but since the issue concerned the suicide of a lady officer, the police administration handed over the probe to a lady SDPO Poonam Patil.
