PANAJI: In a shocking development, absconding fugitive Suleiman Khan, in a fresh video, has revealed that AAP Goa chief Advocate Amit Palekar had forced him to release first video, naming and blaming ruling politicians and police for his escape from lockup.
Interestingly, the video is released by Suleiman, mints before Palekar’s questioning could begin by Old Goa Police, who had summoned him in connection with thr first video of Suleiman.
Suleman’s first video was made public by Congress leader Sunil Kawthankar, who had maintained that the video though a pan drive, was received by Palekar.
In the new video, Khan, also claimed that it was on behest of Palekar that he had named BJP MLA and SP’s involvement. He also said that he had released several videos, which Palekar edited and made it into one before making it viral.
Khan said that Palekar had assured him to provide all help if he releases such video.
“I called up Adv Amit Patkar, he told me to release video by taking names of ruling politicians and police officers. He later told me to send video of whatsapp, I send him 3-4 video of which he compiled and edited it and later released, Palekar forced me to take video,” Suleiman claims in his video.
Fugitive Siddiqui alias Suleman Khan in the first video which went viral on social media, said he feared that Deputy Speaker Joshua D’Souza, Crime Branch SP Rahul Gupta, and Crime Branch and Old Goa Police officials may kill him as they are influential people.
GFP MLA Vijai Sardesai alleged that the CM and BJP are involved in land grabbing, and Siddiqui alias Suleman Khan’s escape appears to be fully scripted.
‘We stand in support of Amit Palekar. We will not be afraid of harassment; instead, we will expose the government’s wrongdoings in the coming year.’
Vijai also said that the person who escaped with the main accused Suleman had bailable sections against him. This means it was all fixed first only that this person will help the accused escape and later he’ll be released by police and then say he has some mental health issues:
MLA Venzy Viegas also came out in support of AAP President, he said that as united opposition we are together going to fight against this government and lead this battle against BJP.
“A brand-new video has appeared in the media. Who is the video’s whistleblower? How did the media learn about it? Police called Amit Palekar when the prior video was released since he was a whistleblower; nevertheless, the whistleblower in this video should now be called to the police station as well,” he added
Venzy said that the government is engaging in dirty politics here. The government knows Suleman’s location. How did Suleman find out that Amit would be showing up to the police station today?
A Special Investigation Team (SIT) was established by the Goa government in June 2022 to look into instances of unlawful land grabs in the state. The SIT has filed 41 FIRs involving at least 90 properties during the investigation.
In a number of cases, the accused falsely completed sale deeds to third parties after unlawfully obtaining properties, and they falsified land records and documents in their own or their allies’ names, frequently in coordination with state archives department officials.
