Panaji, Aug 30 (UNI) The Congress in Goa on Sunday demanded that with state connection emerging in most drug cases, investigation be done on sudden death of former Director General of Police (DGP) Pranab Nanda last year and its likely connection to 'BJP-Drug Mafia' nexus.
In a statement, Goa Congress President Girish Chodankar said,' We demand that detailed investigation should be done of sudden death of former DGP of Goa Pranab Nanda who died of cardiac arrest in Delhi in November last year immediately after landing in Delhi. He was very efficient officer and was probing various drug related cases. He was fit and fine and had no reason to get a severe cardiac arrest, unless he had come under heavy pressure.'
'We have learnt from highly reliable sources that the DGP Pranab Nanda had almost reached to final conclusion of one particular case wherein a businessman in coastal belt was blackmailed by Police Officer demanding huge amount from him with a threat of falsely involving him in a drug case. DGP Nanda, after receiving complaint from the said businessman had started departmental inquiry,' Mr Chodankar said.
