CBI arrests interior designer in Shehla case

Six months after it began probing the murder of RTI activist Shehla Masood in Bhopal, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Tuesday said it has solved the case arresting two people, including an interior designer, Zahida Pervez.

CBI sources said Pervez was the key conspirator in the murder, adding that she had hired a Kanpur hitman called Imran Ali to kill Masood. Imran was nabbed in Kanpur. Masood was found dead in her car in upscale Koh-e-fiza area of the city in August 2011.

The CBI says Pervez, who studied at a Bhopal polytechnic, had a grudge against the slain activist. Pervez's husband owns a petrol pump in Bhopal. While unverifiable reports said Zahida suspected Shehla, who was unmarried, was in a relationship with her husband, CBI officials said the motive behind the killing is yet to be established. The accused will be produced in the special court here on Wednesday.

Shehla was shot dead from point blank range in her car in broad day light on August 16 last year.

There was widespread speculation about those involved in the murder. While some pointed to her close contacts with a section in the ruling BJP, other conjectures said she had "antagonised" an industrial lobby by filing RTI applications seeking information on some high-profile deals. The CBI took up the probe and registered a case on September 3 following a state government request. During the investigation, the agency questioned over 400 people.
