Mangalore Today News Network

Mathura, June 05, 2016: Archana Dwivedi, wife of the City SP Mukul Dwivedi, killed during the clashes between police and encroachers in Mathura, has levelled very serious allegations over Mathura violence.

Demanding a CBI probe into the incident, Archana Dwivedi said her husband was made a "scapegoat".

"When there were para military forces, who are trained to deal with this kind of violence, stationed in Mathura then why senior district police officials sent newly-recruited policemen to a guerilla war," she asked.

Archana said, "It was like playing with their lives" and alleged that other police personnel escaped from the spot leaving her husband behind.

Seconding her demand, Praful Dwivedi, younger brother of the SP, said, "Truth will not come out if any state-level agency probes the incident, country’s largest and independent investigation agency like CBI should be handed over the matter.
