Prof Kalburgi case: ADGP supervising probe

Bengaluru, Aug 31:The additional director general of police, law and order has been sent to Dharwad to personally supervise the investigation into the death of noted write, Professor M M Kalburgi who was shot dead on Sunday at his residence.

The ADGP(L&O), Alok Mohan will supervise the probe into the death of Professor Kalburgi and Chief Minister, Siddaramaiah has instructed the police not to leave any stone unturned in the investigation.

The police are looking into all possible angles which led to the murder and attempts are on to procure the CCTV imagery which could give vital clues about the two persons behind the killing.

Tracking the twitter post:

The police are on the look out for one Bhuvith Shetty who had posted a message on twitter yesterday relating to the death of Kalburgi.

Claiming that he is a co-convenor of the Bajrang Dal, he had defended the death of Proffessor Kalburgi.

The Bajrang Dal has however distanced itself from Shetty and said that there is no such person in the organization.

Police sources say that they have not arrived at any conclusion about who the killers are. It could well be a statement just out of bravado.

However, we want to probe this person who had posted a comment on his twitter account and later went on to delete it. This is one angle to the probe, the police also informed.

On the other hand, the police have been questioning several eye-witnesses who were on the streets when the two men sped away on their motor cycle yesterday after murdering the Kalburgi.

We are getting vital leads in the case and will be able to crack it soon, the police officer also said.
