Since the NIA has taken up the case for a high-level investigation, the state police would extend the Central agency all assistance and logistic support for further investigation, Lather said.

Meanwhile, CPI-M State Secretary Amra Ram and Jamaat e Islami Hind, Rajasthan President Mohd Nazimuddin have condemned Kanhaiyal Lal’s brutal murder by hacking and urged the Central and the State Government to arrest all others who are linked with the two accused and get them the severest punishment at the earliest.
