Jammu/Pathankot: Jammu and Kashmir Police’s Crime Branch filed a supplementary charge sheet in the rape and murder case of an eight-year-old girl from a minority nomadic community in Kathua before a court in Pathankot on Monday, officials said.
Senior Superintendent of Jammu and Kashmir Police (Crime Branch) R K Jalla, accompanied by Special Public Prosecutor J K Chopra and other lawyers, submitted the charge sheet before District and Sessions Judge Tejwinder Singh, the officials said. The charge sheet includes medical opinion about the effect of sedatives on the victim as well as the location of Vishal, son of Sanji Ram, alleged to be the mastermind behind the abduction and killing in January this year. Vishal had claimed he had never visited Kathua.
The Crime Branch has arrested Ram, his son Vishal and his juvenile nephew, two special police officers Deepak Khajuria alias ‘Dipu’ and Surender Verma and friend Parvesh Kumar alias Mannu. All of them were named in the first charge sheet on April 9.
It also arrested head constable Tilak Raj and sub-inspector Anand Dutta, who allegedly took Rs 4 lakh from Sanji Ram and destroyed crucial evidence. Raj and Dutta have since been dismissed from service.
The Crime Branch alleged in its charge sheet that the withdrawals were made to bribe the police officers for destruction of evidence. (PTI)
