Jagdalpur. Mukesh Chandrakar’s brother Yukesh narrowly escaped. A truck hit the car. Yukesh said that his life was in danger and said, am I in any danger? I had left for Jagdalpur from Bijapur with brother Mukesh Chandrakar’s car to meet a lawyer.
The truck hit him, started dragging him without stopping. When he asked to stop the truck by parking it on the side, he ran away with the truck. I was in the car with my wife and journalist colleague Satish Allur ji, all three of us are safe right now (for now). Are I and my family safe?
Bijapur journalist Mukesh Chandrakar was beaten to death with a rod. To mislead the location, his mobile was thrown into the Tumnar river 50KM away. 5 days before the incident, contractor Suresh Chandrakar had planned Mukesh’s murder. This has been revealed in the SIT report. These people were angry with Mukesh because of the news of road construction work.
