A local court on Friday directed
the police to include Rajasthan minister Mahipal Maderna's name in the
FIR in the nurse Bhanwari Devi missing case.
The
direction was given by additional Chief Judicial Magistrate of Bilara
Sandeep Sharma while hearing a complaint filed by Amarchand, husband of
36-year-old Bhanwari Devi.
Amarchand
had lodged the FIR after his wife, who was posted as auxiliary nurse
midwife at a sub-centre in Jaliwada village in the district, went
missing on September 1.
The
complaint filed in the court on Tuesday accused Maderna of blackmailing
his wife and charged him with kidnap, rape and murder.
In
his order, Sharma directed the police to club Maderna's name in the
previously lodged FIR by Amarchand and clamp charges of rape, murder and
criminal conspiracy against him.
The
Rajasthan High Court had on Thursday expressed displeasure over the
"directionless" probe in the case and pulled up the investigation
officer.
The
court, while hearing the habeas corpus filed by Amarchand, had ordered
the Inspector General of Police (Jodhpur Range) to appear before it on
September 26 with the progress report on the probe.
