Speaking to the media, Hiremath stated, “I have provided the names of eight individuals openly involved in the incident. However, not a single arrest has been made so far. I am losing faith in the current investigation process.”
Expressing his frustration, Hiremath accused the local authorities of attempting to divert the case and demanded that the investigation be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) if the local police fail to make progress.
