Sena (UBT)’s firebrand leader Sushma Andhare on Monday (September 23) questioned CM Eknath Shinde’s government over Badlapur rape accused Akshay Shinde’s encounter and asked if it was an attempt to “suppress” facts related to the case.
Talking to Marathi news channel ABP Majha, Andhare said it was hard to believe that an accused who had both his hands handcuffed could snatch the police weapon and fire shots at the cops, essentially questioning the Maharashtra government’s version of the incident.
The UBT leader also questioned as to why was Tushar Apte, secretary of the trust running the school, still missing and asked if there was an attempt to “suppress” facts related to the rape case?
She also took to X and asked, “Akshay Shinde was not a Mahatma Mahapurush or a mere human being so there is no point in lamenting his death. But the attempt to bypass the entire process of law on the occasion of his encounter raises many serious questions, who will answer it?”
अक्षय शिंदे हा महात्मा महापुरुष किंवा सोज्वळ माणूस नव्हता त्यामुळे त्याच्या मृत्यूवर हळहळण्यात काहीच अर्थ नाही.
मात्र त्याच्या एन्काऊंटरच्या निमित्ताने कायद्याची संपूर्ण प्रक्रियाच बायपास करण्याचा जो प्रयत्न झाला त्यातून अनेक गंभीर प्रश्न निर्माण होतात त्याची उत्तरे कोण देणार?

UBT’s Priyanka Chaturvedi Asks Serious Questions Related To Encounter
“The accused is dead and the other Co accused under POCSO who were the school board members as well as BJP office bearers are on the run. Such a textbook case of shoot and scoot tactics applied by incompetent government. Coming soon, nobody sexually assaulted the 6 year olds. A story written, sponsored and executed by the state government,” posted the Rajya Sabha MP.
