Staff Reporter
Nagpur police has sent a notice to a Congress MLA from Madhya Pradesh for recording his statement in connection with the murder case of Sana Khan alias Heena Khan, a 34-year-old functionary of the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Minority Cell from Awasthi Nagar. The police are likely to question the MLA about his role in providing shelter to the accused persons involved in the murder case. DCP Zone II Rahul Madne said that the notice was part of regular investigation in the murder case. The Congress MLA is likely to appear before the police to record his statement this week.
 
Another police official said that Rabbu alias Ravishankar Yadav and Kamlesh Patel, both residents of Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, were arrested on Tuesday in connection with the murder case. Sana went missing on August 2 after a confrontation with her partner-turned-foe, Pappu. The relationship between the two had reportedly soured after Pappu started suspecting Sana’s fidelity. The situation escalated on August 1 during a video call between Sana and Amit. Following the altercation, Sana travelled to Jabalpur on August 2 and visited Pappu’s residence, where a violent confrontation ensued, resulting into her murder.
 
After arresting Pappu Shahu and his close aide Ramesh Singh, the Nagpur police apprehended Dharmendra Yadav for
disposing of Sana’s body. Kamlesh Patel was charged for disposing off the mobile phones while Rabbu's exact role in the murder case was not ascertained so far. He is the right hand of the political leader and known as sand-mafia in Jabalpur district, the official claimed. Investigation revealed that Pappu Sahu was using Sana Khan for honey trapping his targets. The sextortion racket was operating for the past three years and the gang amassed huge wealth through the racket.
