AGARTALA, Oct 13 (TIWN): Santanu murder case is taking a new turn as Santanu's father Sadhan Bhowmik has exposed Tripura Govt for outcasting him from every information about Santanu's brutal murder. Neither Sadhan Bhowmik was informed about his son's death nor he was allowed in GB hospital to take the last glimpse of his son. Santanu's father calling press on Friday said, "I have equal right to get informed about my son's death but after 3 weeks of Santanu's brutal murder not a single police official has called me neither from Govt side anybody informed me anything, even though I am the biological father of Santanu".

Sadhan Bhowmik also alleged that he was not allowed to participate in his son's last rituals, although Santanu is the one and only son of him.

A letter has been written to the Chief Minister by Sadhan Bhowmik demanding CBI investigation in Santanu's murder. "I don't have any faith in SIT. Moreover 3 weeks after Santnau's murder the progress of Santanu murder case has be very slow that made me unhappy",  Bhowmik writes in the letter to CM.

"I request you to refer the case of Santanu murder case to CBI as state police is biased", added Bhowmik.

Now, except CPI-M  everyone has demanded CBI probe in Santanu murder case. State journalists, opposition BJP, accused party of his murder IPFT and  Santanu's family all are in demand of CBI, but what response CM gives to Santnau's  father, it's to be seen.

Noteworthy, IPFT / CPI-M clash's brutal attack has killed Tripura young journalist Santanu Bhowmik on Sep-20. Resident of Jirania, the young journalist was associated with various electronic media who has been killed while covering IPFT and CPI-M clash at Mandai.

The barbaric murder has taken place on Wednesday afternoon when after getting informed about an ongoing tension on that hilly zone, Santanu rushed to Mandai to cover the incident. But, while covering the event suddenly an attack was held upon him with sharp weapons (Da) and continuously the attackers were injuring him. However, CPI-M has claimed the murderers were none other than but IPFT activists, whereas CPI-M's role is heavily under suspect which fueled the demand of CBI probe in his murder case.

A source said that Santanu's mother has also been sent with her daughter outside the state, so that they keep out of any discussion regarding Santanu murder case till Election-2018. But most surprising matter is that till day police have failed to find out the tabs, mobiles used by Santanu through which Santanu was video recording the whole incident.
