Bhopal, October 8: A 24-year-old Dalit youth, wanted in a rape case, was found dead at an isolated place in Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh, with gunshot injuries on Tuesday. The police had been searching for him since Monday after the accused allegedly shot dead the girl’s grandfather in a fit of rage. The deceased has been identified as Bhola Ahirwar. Police said preliminary investigation suggests it is a suicide case as he left a message on his social media account claiming that he was being implicated in the rape case.
Police said the investigation is being carried out from all possible angles, however, prima facie it appears a suicide case. According to police, Ahirwar had barged into the house of the rape victim on Monday, and opened fire, killing the victim’s grandfather. The girl, 17, (rape victim) had lodged a complaint against Ahirwar two months ago, accusing him of raping her. Police said that prima-facie it seems the accused (Ahirwar) wanted to come to a compromise in connection with the (rape) case registered earlier.
