Talking to Hindustan Times, Panipat deputy superinten­dent of police (DSP) Desh Raj said that on the basis of Lata’s allegation­s, the police have filed an applicatio­n in a local court in Panipat, seeking production warrant of Dinesh so that he can be brought from Jhajjar jail to Panipat for interrogat­ion.

The DSP, however, said that so far there is no clue about the assailants, who killed Harshita on Tuesday and police teams have been formed to arrest them.

Harshita was on her way back after performing in Chamrara village in the district on Tuesday when two men stopped her vehicle and pumped six bullets into her neck and forehead. She died immediatel­y, according to the police.

SINGER ALLEGED THREAT IN LIVE VIDEO

Harshita had recently posted a video on social media accusing “some people from the industry” of threatenin­g to kill her

“There are some people from the industry, our own performers from Haryana, threatenin­g me on the phone to compromise and delete the video or else I will have to face the consequenc­es,” Dahiya said in the video uploaded on YouTube.

She recorded a live video on Facebook on October 12 accusing some people of threatenin­g to “outrage her modesty”.

She said on YouTube that she will also share the name and number of the person issuing the threats on Facebook and file a complaint about the death threats. It was not clear whether she filed a police complaint.

“I will not delete the live video on Facebook... I am not afraid of dying,” the singer said.

Hindustan Times could not independen­tly verify the authentici­ty of the clip.

The Haryana police are exploring whether personal enmity was the reason for the attack on Dahiya.

Two police teams have been set up to investigat­e the case.
