Udit’s father Rajkumar Gayaki called for a CBI investigation, citing lack of faith in the local inquiry. He alleged the FIR was weak and claimed police had not shared any CCTV camera footage, forcing Udit’s friends to gather recordings from private shops.
Police commissioner Harinayaran Chari Mishra assured that a strict investigation was underway. Authorities were scrutinizing all CCTV camera footage and probing why Udit’s friends did not rush him immediately to a hospital after the assault.
BJP state president and MLA Hemant Khandelwal visited the family on Monday morning to express condolences. Speaking to the media, Khandelwal said some facts in the FIR appeared manipulated and pledged to meet senior police officials to ensure justice to the bereaved family.
