PARL. BREACH: BURNT PHONES RECOVERED

In an ongoing probe regarding the Parliament security breach incident, the sleuths of Delhi police’s special cell recovered fragments of some broken and burnt mobile phones of the accused person from Rajasthan’s Nagaur area.

According to official sources, a special cell team took Lalit Jha, the alleged mastermind of the Parliament breach case, to Nagaur’s Kuchaman city area, where he pointed out the place where he had destroyed the mobile phones by crushing them and later setting them on fire.

Following the recovery of burnt cellphones, the police have decided to add Section 201 (destruction of evidence/disappearance of evidence) of the Indian Penal Code to the already registered FIR. Police officials said Lalit and another accused in the case Mahesh Kumawat intentionally destroyed the mobile phones to hide technical evidence related to the case.

Sources privy to the investigations revealed that Lalit also shared the video through Whatsapp with one of his friends named Sourav Chakraborty in Kolkata and even asked him to further circulate the video. On Sunday, a Delhi police team also reached Lucknow along with the accused Sagar Sharma to find the place where he manufactured those shoes in which the alleged people had hidden coloured smoke canisters. Earlier, a police team took co-accused Neelam Devi to Haryana’s Jind district, where her family lives.

The police probe has revealed that Lalit, a resident of West Bengal, also reportedly filmed the protest by Amol and Neelam outside the Parliament.
