KOLKATA: Three days after the homicide of 65-year-old Biswajit Basu at his Broad Street residence on Wednesday, police said that the murderer was a newbie and that not more than two people were involved the crime. The detective branch and the Karaya police spent the whole day thinking about humans who had been near Basu and who had known him in the recent past. A forensic team gathered evidence from the spot, one of the essential obligations to set up the access and escape routes of the assailant.
The investigators have come to recognize that Basu O, on my own, was not the inheritor of the property and that he changed intoit in a hurry to sell off the plot. Sources stated they may be checking his financial institution accounts to examine if he had already obtained some payments from asset dealers in the month of May. The police, meanwhile, persisted in interrogating his younger daughter Bijoyita to collect greater clues approximately the murder.
“The murder took place between 10.07 pm (the time Bijoyita spoke to her father) and 10.40 pm (while Bijoyita returned home). Bijoyita, who left at five.30pm, became speculated to be back by means of 9.30 pm, she had claimed. If that is so, why will the accused pick out the very last second to assault the senior citizen?” wondered an investigator.
“The damage marks on Basu propose that no longer were they all deep enough. The death occurred as important nerves had been reduced in the course of the attack. This looks like the handiwork of one or a maximum of people,” said an officer at Lalbazar. Sources stated that the victim is no longer a tender-spoken character, and hence the personal enmity angle is likewise being probed.
Cops are positive that someone who isknownd to Basu is in the back of the murder. “The assets — spread over 2. Five cottahs —wwerefetching Rs 1.15 crore. But the deal had fallen through,gh, and a robbery worth Rs 50,000 had ffollowedthe residence. The house too was turned into a location ransacked location. Hence, the property perspective, together with private enmity, can’t be ruled out. The truth that Basu had desired to get rid of his belongings in a hurry is also aananother indicatorhe concept is simple — we can work on all possible theories, except that we get extra precise leads,” said the police.
