ADVOCATE Nilesh Ojha, in connection with the death case of Disha Salian, on Saturday, said that points raised by him earlier were being substantiated as more evidence emerged, and claimed that a report submitted to the Home Ministry regarding the reinstatement of former police officer Sachin Vaze had raised fresh questions in the case. Advocate Ojha, representing Satish Salian in the case, said, “Regarding this case, all the points we raised are being substantiated as more evidence comes to light.

 

From our allegations of a false cover-up and the state of Disha’s body to the High Court order, the SIT report, and the records currently with the CBI, everything we claimed is being proven true.” Advocate Ojha also sought custodial interrogation of the accused person. He further alleged that Vaze’s appointment to the CIU violated the applicable regulations. Ojha further said, “The rules required an officer of the rank of Police Inspector (PI) for the CIU, but Sachin Vaze did not meet this criterion; he was of a lower rank, yet he was appointed there in violation of the regulations.” Ojha alleged that the evidence suggested Vaze was urgently reinstated to execute a conspiracy that included the murder of Disha and its subsequent cover-up, as well as to facilitate extortion, the drug trade and other illicit activities. Disha Salian was found dead on June 8, 2020, in Mumbai. Her death had initially been recorded as an Accidental Death Report (ADR).
