Neta, IPS men aiding accused: Lahoria’s son

S Ahmed Ali TNN


Mumbai:Sandeep alias Sunny Lahoria, son of slain Navi Mumbai builder Sunil Lahoria, has claimed that a senior politician and at least four IPS officers are aiding and abetting the prime accused in his father’s murder case.
    A politician is influencing the police to not arrest the prime accused-—builder Suresh Bij
lani and architect Anuragh Garg, said Sunny at a press conference on Tuesday. “Four IPS officers have aided them and, in fact I would say, they also had prior knowledge that my father was going to be killed. I have written several letters to the home department,” he said.
    Interestingly, this allegation had been one of the reasons why the case was transferred from the Navi
Mumbai police to the Mumbai crime branch. Sunny also hit out at the Navi Mumbai police for not arresting Bijlani on May 24 when he had staged a shootout on himself in Kharghar.
    “Like earlier, this time too, Bijlani was in Kharghar
after the shootout and, from very beginning, the Navi Mumbai police knew that the incident was staged, but they did not arrest him. Now, after the SC has stayed Bijlani’s interim bail of 60 days, he has again gone underground, thanks to the police,” said Sunny, who said he was surprised as to how the Indore high court had granted Bijlani an interim bail, when there is no such provision in murder cases.
    “Bijlani is not absconding, he is taking opinions from his legal team and will be available soon,” his lawyer Ramesh Tripathi.
