Relatives said that an accident occurred while cleaning the gun and Rahul got shot. A few months after the incident, Rahul’s five-year-old daughter Tanvi told mother Ranjita that her uncle Rohit Patel had shot Papa.
Ranjita was shocked to hear this. She inquired about this to her mother-in-law Soran Bai, father-in-law Hari Om, brother-in-law Rohit, brother-in-law Deepak, brother-in-law Santosh and sister-in-law Rita, but they threatened her.

Because of this the court accepted
Advocate Manish Yadav, who is pleading on behalf of Ranjita in the complaint, said that statements of daughter Tanvi, the doctor who conducted the postmortem, ballistic expert and others were recorded on behalf of the complainant. The doctor who conducted the postmortem told the court that there were many marks of pellet injury on Rahul’s body.
