City police chief Ankush Dhanvijay sounded hopeful on Sunday of cracking the Monica Kirnapure murder case, which has become an acid test for him. Dhanvijay said his men have stumbled upon some clues that could potentially solve the puzzle. He did not go into any details regarding the clue.
Dhanvijay had put more than 40 officers to crack the case and he himself had been toiling round the clock. "We now have some good leads that could turn out to be authentic clues. We cannot disclose them now as it could hamper the probe," said the CP.
If Dhanvijay is to be believed, cops are likely to solve the case soon. "It is too early to comment, but I am hopeful about the way things are progressing," said the 1984 batch IPS officer. Cracking the case, which must be surely one of the toughest challenges in his career so far, may add a feather to Dhanvijay's crown.
While speculation is rife among citizens about the murder, there's a lot of rumour mongering about the fate of the case. City police experienced one such situation the day before when a miscreant tried to mislead the Nandanvan cops about knowing the culprits behind the assault on the third-year engineering student at Shree Nagar on March 11. Nandanvan cops soon realised that the youngster wanted to frame his rival.
CP Dhanvijay has issued strict instructions to teach both the quarrelling parties a lesson, and ensure they never indulge in such pranks again. "We generally receive numerous calls which are mostly of no use. But, every call is being verified dutifully," said Dhanvijay.
Though the CP refused to comment on inspector general of police Rashmi Shukla's trip to the city to look into the case after instructions from the state home department, a section of the city cops seem to be surprised by the senior officer's quick visit.
"It is not possible for an officer to contribute substantially in a critical case by making short visits or temporary stays. The city has its crop of seasoned officers to give results," said a senior cop.
Dashrath Kirnapure, the father of Monica, said that the local police's inability to crack the case may have prompted the state government to send someone senior from Mumbai.
"The cops may be following their typical method of investigation. I have full faith on cops, be it from Nagpur or elsewhere," said Dashrath in reply to a query regarding IGP Shukla's visit.
