Come August 23 and Bhikhu Jethava, father of slain RTI activists Amit Jethava, will become a joint applicant in the last petition filed by the latter against illegal mining.

Bhikhu will also mention his dissatisfaction with the police investigation in the much talked about murder case. Bhikhu said he would also demand a CBI investigation into the case.

Talking to DNA, Bhikhu alleged that the Gujarat police had tried to divert the investigation by coming up with a dummy accused in the case instead of nabbing the key conspirator.Bhikhu had accused Dinu Solanki, a Junagadh MP, for his son's murder.

He said that the police did not even bother to record his statement. "My son's last petition against illegal mining activities in Saurashtra had also mentioned about 45 illegal mines being run by Solanki," he said.

Solanki and others had threatened us after the petition was filed.Bhikhu is not satisfied with the investigation conducted by the Gujarat police in the case. "The detection of crime branch is trying to shield Solanki by showing Bahadur Wadher and Shailesh Pandya as the main accused in the case," he said.

Bhikhu furthers said that Wadher does not have the sort of money that contract killers demand. "Someone funded Wadher to pay for the contract killing and I am sure it has to be Solanki," he said.He also said that according to his sources, an amount close to Rs1 crore was paid to get his son killed. The DCB has allegedly detained one Paachan Shiva, who incidentally was never mentioned by Bhikhu in his statement. "I had mentioned the name of one Pratap Solanki alias Shiva who I suspect was involved in the murder, but the police did not bother to record his statement," he said.

"Instead, the police have tried to divert the investigations by cornering Paachan Shiva a resident of Surendranagar," he said.
