Suhas Shetty was murdered by a group of 5-6 assailants in Mangaluru on Thursday night.
Speaking about a government representative’s visit to Suhas Shetty’s family and the fact that no one consoled them, he said, “This is a murder case. There are cases against Suhas Shetty too, five cases against him. So, we did not visit his family”.
Responding to doubts raised about whether those arrested in the Hindu activist’s murder case are the real accused, he said, “How can anyone simply be made an accused? It is not possible to arrest just about anyone in a murder case”.
Regarding BJP’s demand for an NIA investigation into the murder case, Parameshwara stated that the police department is capable of handling the case, and eight people have already been arrested.
He added that the government will provide justice to the family of Suhas Shetty and dismissed BJP’s allegations, saying murders occurred during their tenure as well. Parameshwara assured that all necessary steps are being taken to prevent and investigate crimes, and instructions have been given to SPs to be vigilant.
