Prajapati, who was allegedly a close aide of Sheikh and also a witness to his murder, was killed on December 2006–a year after Sheikh was shot dead in an fake encounter. The journalist had alleged senior BJP leaders managed to get undated blank ‘Vakalatnamas’ from Prajapati’s mother Narmadabai to allegedly subvert the judicial proceedings. PTI
