Will reopen Sunil Joshi murder case if necessary: MP minister
Madhya Pradesh Law Minister P C Sharma Thursday said that if necessary, the state government would reopen former RSS pracharak Sunil Joshi murder case, in which BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Bhopal Pragya Singh Thakur was acquitted by the court.
Pragya Singh, along with seven others, were acquitted by a court in Dewas on February 1, 2017 in the Sunil Joshi murder case due to lack of concrete evidence against them. Joshi was shot dead on December 29, 2007 in Dewas Industrial Area police station limits.
When asked whether the decision of the lower court to acquit Pragya and others in the Sunil Joshi murder case will be challenged in the high court, Sharma said, "The matter has not been brought to my notice yet. I will see to it tomorrow or the day after when I reach Bhopal."
