MUMBAI: Nationalist Congress Party(SP) MLA Rohit Pawar has intensified his demand for a high-level criminal investigation into the plane crash that killed former Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.
He met Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Friday and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray, alleging a "conspiracy" and demanding an FIR against the aviation company involved.
The crash on January 28 saw the Learjet 45 carrying Ajit Pawar crash during a second landing attempt in Baramati, Maharashtra.
While the CBI and CID are currently investigating the matter, Rohit Pawar claimed the police are deliberately obstructing the filing of a formal criminal case.
