On June 17, a large number of activists under the leadership of National President of Rashtriya Vipra Ekta Manch Mitresh Chaturvedi reached the Superintendent of Police office in protest against the non-arrest of absconding accused in the ration dealer murder case of village Dhourpur in Hathras. These people demonstrated there. A memorandum was handed over to SDM Sadar and Additional Superintendent of Police who arrived on the spot.
Let us tell you that on June 13, ration dealer Yogesh Upadhyay, resident of village Dhourpur of Kotwali Hathras Junction area, was shot dead by some named people. In this case, a case was registered against four named and two unknown people in Kotwali Hathras Junction. Police have arrested two accused. The remaining four are still absconding. The people of Brahmin community, who reached the SP office under the leadership of Mitresh Chaturvedi, demanded the immediate arrest of the remaining accused. These people also submitted a memorandum to ASP Ashok Kumar Singh and Sub-District Magistrate Sadar.
Mitresh said that the accused should be arrested within 72 hours. He said that steps have not been taken as quickly as they should have been taken to provide justice to the victim’s family. This is why the victim’s family has come to a sit-in protest today. The main accused is still out of police custody. No action has been taken to provide compensation and arms license to the victim’s family.
The victim’s family is in panic. One member of the victim’s family should be given a job for livelihood and the ration dealer’s shop should be allotted in the name of the deceased’s wife. He warned that if Yogesh’s family does not get justice, the fight for justice will be fought from Hathras to Lucknow. If needed, a sit-in will also be held at the Chief Minister’s residence and the Legislative Assembly.
On this occasion many people including Ashish Sharma, Dharmesh Sharma, Shyamsundar Sharma, Vikas Kaushik, Babbi Pandit, Sonu Sharma, Vishnukant Dixit, Mohit Upadhyay, Rakesh Upadhyay, Durgadutt Upadhyay, Bikendra Upadhyay, Kapil Mohan Gaur, Madan Mohan Gaur, Sharad Upadhyay Nanda, Vinay Chaturvedi, Brijesh Vashishth etc were present.
