Amit ran sextortion racket

It was recently revealed that the primary accused in the murder case, Amit Sahu, and his accomplice were reportedly subjecting the 35-year-old woman to abuse. The accused allegedly coerced Sana Khan into sextortion, using her as 'honey-trap' to extort money. 

On Tuesday, police arrested Kamlesh Patel, a Jabalpur-based criminal in connection with the case. Kamlesh is suspected to have destroyed the deceased BJP leader’s cell phone.
