Sunil Joshi murder case: Chargesheet against Pragya filed

The chargesheet runs into 432 pages, contains statements of 124 witnesses and also has 89 annexures.

Dewas(MP): The Dewas Police have filed a
chargesheet against Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur and others in
connection with the murder of RSS worker Sunil Joshi in 2007.

The chargesheet running into 432 pages was filed
yesterday in the First Class Judicial Magistrate (JMFC)
Padmesh Shah`s court, a day after Pragya was formally arrested
at a hospital in Mumbai where she was undergoing treatment.

It contains statements of 124 witnesses and also has
89 annexures.

The chargesheet said that Pragya confessed before the
Dewas Police in Mumbai that Joshi was killed because he
misbehaved with her and his overall behaviour was something
not expected by a woman.

She also told the police that Joshi was misusing the
money that came to him from the party and other sources.

Besides Pragya Thakur, the chargesheet names Anand Raj
Kataria, Harshad Solanki, Vasudev Parmar and Ramchandra Patel
as accused in the case.

All of them have been charged under sections 302, 120B,
201 and 34 of the IPC and sections 25 and 27 of the Arms
Act.

Two other accused in the case Mehul and Rakesh, both
hailing from Gujarat, are still absconding.
