Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Wednesday informed that assistant police inspector Sachin Vaze will be removed from the Crime Branch of Mumbai Police. “Sachin Vaze will be removed from the Crime Branch and posted in some other department. It is being done so that an impartial investigation can be conducted in this (Mansukh Hiren death) case,” the state Home Minister mentioned in the Legislative Council. He mentioned the government decided to take away Sachin Vaze as his name came up in the statement of Mansukh Hiren’s wife.
The BJP leaders, on the other hand, demanded Vaze’s suspension and arrest for his alleged part in the death of businessman Mansukh Hiren, whose stolen automobile with 20 gelatin sticks was located close to Mukesh Ambani’s higher-rise residence Antilia in South Mumbai. The BJP members raised slogans as the state Home Minister announced Vaze’s transfer from the Crime Branch.
This comes just a day just after former Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis demanded quick arrest of Sachin Vaze. Speaking in the Assembly, Fadnavis cited Hiren’s wife statement and claimed that Sachin Vaze was in possession of the automobile for 4 months. “The Innova car which was behind the Scorpio is in Mumbai as per my information. Give me some time, I will trace it,” he added.
The former chief minister also claimed that Hiren’s wife had alleged in her statement to police that her husband may possibly have been killed by Vaze. “She told police that her husband knew Vaze and the Scorpio was with the police officer from November 2020 to February 5, 2021,” Fadnavis mentioned. “She had also said her husband was with Vaze on February 27, 28 and March 2. The complaint letter (of Hiren) addressed to the chief minister, deputy chief minister and police commissioners of Mumbai and Thane was written on the instructions of Vaze,” Fadnavis alleged.
Before Hien went missing, he had written a letter to CM, Deputy CM, police commissioners of Mumbai and Thane. In that letter, Hiren had claimed that he was getting harassed by police and media in spite of not possessing any know-how of who stole his automobile, Scorpio. His wife, Vimla Hiren, now says that that letter was written on the instruction of Vaze.
The former chief minster additional claimed that Hiren’s final place was located with Dhananjay Vithal Gawde, against whom an FIR was lodged in an extortion case. The other particular person pointed out in the identical FIR was Sachin Vaze, Fadnavis mentioned.
