Had the cops acted timely and did not showed laxity, lives of the girls would have been saved. They were hand in gloves with the accused,” father of one of the victim told PTI here. “The policemen at Katra Sadatganj outpost gave full chance to the accused to commit the crime. We don’t trust local police now. We want a CBI probe in this matter,” he said. Meanwhile, Katra Sadatganj police outpost in-charge Ram Vilas Yadav has been suspended and two constables — Sarvesh Yadav and Chhatrapal Yadav — were terminated from services. A team of the National Women Commission reached the village to get all the relevant information from the villagers about the unfortunate incident that took place on 27 May night. BSP supremo Mayawati also demanded a CBI probe into the matter today. PTI
