Chandigarh, March 8

The victim in the property grab case, Rahul Mehta, was taken back to Rajasthan by the Chandigarh Police after getting his statement recorded under Section 164 of the CrPC. However, citing security reasons, the management at the ashram refused to admit him following which Mehta was brought back to the city.

DSP, Inspector summoned

• The SIT on Monday issued summons for questioning the two cops — a DSP and Inspector — in the case. They will join the investigation and their statements will be recorded.

In June/July 2017, Surjit and others took Rahul to Bhuj in Gujarat and confined him to a stud farm, owned by Abdul Karim, for over a month.

The police have, meanwhile, also identified the proxy of Rahul, who had appeared before the Sub-Registrar, Estate Office, Chandigarh, on March 1, 2019, to execute the sale deed in the name or Saurabh Gupta.

The sources said the person was at large.
