Badaun double murder: Two boys Ayush and Ahaan died, while their brother Yuvraj was admitted to the hospital.
Vinod Kumar, the father of the Badaun double murder victims, has urged the Uttar Pradesh Police to not kill the second accused in an encounter. He wants that the accused, Javed, who was arrested on Thursday, should be questioned to ascertain if his children were killed as part of a conspiracy.
“Javed must be questioned so that we know why they did this. If he is killed in an encounter, the secret will never come out. Others may be involved too. We need to know if my children were killed as part of a conspiracy. They would have killed others in the family too,” said Vinod, the father of the boys, was quoted as saying by NDTV.
“I want a full investigation into this. What was the reason behind the murder of my children? I appeal to (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi ji and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath so that we know what happened,” he added.
On Tuesday, three children of Vinod- Ayush (12), Ahaan alias Honey (8) and Yuvraj (10) were allegedly attacked with a knife. In the gruesome attack, Ayush and Ahaan died, while Yuvraj was admitted to the hospital, according to the police. One of the accused, Sajid, was killed in an encounter with the police. The second accused, Javed had been absconding since the incident.
The Uttar Pradesh Police arrested Javed on Thursday after he surrendered at the Satellite Police outpost of Baradari Police Station of Bareilly.
“Javed, the brother of main accused Sajid, was arrested by a police team in nearby Bareilly district. He is being brought to the district for further questioning,” said Badaun senior Superintendent of police Alok Priyadarshi.
