New Delhi, June 10 (ANI): National Congress Party (NCP) on Wednesday suspended its murder case accused MP Padamsinh Patil from its primary membership.

The Sharad Pawar-led NCP was facing tremendous pressure from all around over its Patil's alleged involvement in the double-murder case.

The Disciplinary Action Committee of the party met in the capital on Wednesday and decided to suspend the Lok Sabha member from Osamanabad in Maharashtra from the primary membership, said NCP leader Praful Patel in the national capital on Wednesday.

"We are not holding him guilty. But we would like to keep a distance as Patil faces the legal process. If he proves his innocence we will have no no problem in taking him back," Patel said.

The party was only following a convention in public life that a person who is facing investigations in a criminal case should not be associated with the party, Patel added.

The suspension comes three days after the arrest of Patil by CBI in connection with the murder of Congress leader Pawanraj Nimbalkar and his driver three years ago. (ANI)
