In a sharp criticism of the police's handling of the Badlapur sexual assault case, Congress leader Nana Patole has raised serious questions about the encounter of Akshay Shinde. Speaking on the issue, Patole suggested that Shinde’s encounter could not have occurred without the approval of the Director General of Police (DGP), alleging that the incident was orchestrated to shield the true perpetrators of the crime.

Patole's remarks come after the High Court questioned the legitimacy of the police's actions in the encounter, casting doubt on the narrative provided by the authorities. "High Court has raised questions on police about the encounter of Akshay Shinde in Maharashtra. This could not have happened without the approval of DGP. Akshay Shinde was killed to shield the real perpetrators. The narrative given by police is made up," Patole asserted.

The case has sparked controversy, with accusations that the police may have manipulated the investigation to protect influential individuals involved in the case. Patole’s comments reflect growing concerns over the transparency of the law enforcement process in such high-profile cases.

As the High Court continues to examine the circumstances surrounding Shinde’s death, pressure is mounting for a thorough and impartial investigation to ensure justice is served in the Badlapur sexual assault case. Patole's statement adds to the calls for accountability and clarity in the police's actions.
