The Rajasthan Police on Thursday gave a clean chit to Monu Manesar in the Bhiwani murders case. His name was removed from the wanted list, stated TV reports.

The Rajasthan police had identified eight accused in the case of alleged murder of two Muslim youths--Nasir and Junaid who were suspected to be cow smugglers--in Bhiwani, Haryana. They had released names with photographs which included Manesar's name and photo as well.

However, the next day, he and another accused named Lokesh Singla were given clean chit.

Mahapanchayat organised in support of Manesar

Hindu organisations from four states gathered in the ongoing mahapanchayat being held over the Bhiwani murders where they declared support for Monu Manesar.

Who is Monu Manesar?

Mohit Yadv alias Monu Manesar is district convener of Gurugram Bajrang Dal, stated reports and he is also associated with Gau Task Force, a group that is known to initiate action promptly on cases pertaining to cattle smuggling and cow slaughter. The group does so without considering all information, a report cited.
