==Antilia case: Chilling plot to kill Mansukh Hiren== | |||
Former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh met former encounter specialist police officer Pradeep Sharma after the death of businessman Mansukh Hiren, whose vehicle was found filled with explosives near the residence of industrialist Mukesh Ambani, according to the National Investigation Agency or NIA which is probing the case. | |||
The probe agency learnt about the meeting during a statement by a Mumbai Police Crime Branch Assistant Commissioner of Police, officials said. The officer told NIA that encounter specialist Pradeep Sharma and Assistant Police Inspector Sachin Waze held meeting with Param Bir Singh on March 5, the day Thane-based businessman Mansukh Hiran was found dead in a creek in Mumbra. The officer said that he saw the two officers leaving Param Bir Singh's cabin when he was going to meet the latter along with the Deputy Commissioner of Police and Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) after hearing the news of Mansukh Hiren's death | |||
On the death of Mansukh Hiren, Parambir Singh is learned to have called the incident "unfortunate". "It was unfortunate that Mansukh committed suicide. Under pressure, he should not have given his life," according to the statement of the Assistant Police Commissioner's statement given to the NIA. | |||
The NIA chargesheet points to Pradeep Sharma's role in the death of Mansukh Hiren. According to the chargesheet filed by the probe agency, accused Santosh Shelar had called Pradeep Sharma - using a SIM card provided by a bookie - after Mansukh Hiren was killed and told him that the "work had been done". Santosh Shelar was arrested in connection with the murder in June. <ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/in-ambani-bomb-scare-details-emerge-of-a-meet-between-ex-top-cop-param-bir-singh-and-accused-after-businessman-mansukh-hirens-murder-2535203|title=Ambani Bomb Scare Case: Ex-Mumbai Cop Met Accused After Trader's Murder, Cop's Testimony Shows| accessdate=9 September 2021|date=9 September 2021}}</ref> | |||
