He also assured the family that AAP will fight till the the justice done.
Chottepur said, "Even 5 days after the Abohar Dalit murder case, police have still not arrested the prime accused in case, Shiv Lal Doda and his nephew Amit Doda at whose farmhouse the murder took place".
Police are working under the pressure of Akali leaders and hesitating to book Doda because of his association with Akali Dal, he alleged.
He warned police to book Doda and his nephew in 3 days failing which the Aam Aadmi Party will start agitation all over the state.
Chottepur alleged that the Badals have pushed Punjab towards failure in every sphere.
He said that it is the result of the "terrible policies of the government that people are seeing no future in the state."
Chottepur said that a Candle March will be organized tomorrow "against the atrocities of police" all over the state.
Suspected henchmen of liquor baron Shiv Lal Doda, who is said to be a member of a prominent political party in the state, allegedly chopped off the limbs of the Dalit man, Bhim Sain (27), in the attack led by one Harpreet Harry after a heated exchange broke out between Sain and Harry on last Friday night at a farm house in Abohar subdivision area.
Six persons have so far been held for the murder of Bhim Sain. Police had booked several persons including Harry, Raja, Radheyshyam, Wazir, Gulab, Chhajju, Simran, Happy and some unidentified persons under various sections, including Section 302 (murder), of the IPC in connection with the incident.
Police is treating the case as a fall-out of "gang rivalry" between Bhim Sain and other group.
A four-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed to probe the case.
