However, he also added that so far they have not been able to determine a concrete clue or motive behind the cold-blooded murder. “We are investigating all the aspects and different teams are working on each and every angle. However, so far, they have not got anything concrete in the case,” said Pol.
So far over 900 criminals have been interrogated. Retired police officers who were considered to have good investigative skills were also summoned.
“The bereaved son and daughter of Dabholkar met me today and I updated them with the case status and even asked them whether they doubt any organisation or individual,” he said.
“We appeal to people to come forward and give the information about the incident or the assailants -- their names would be kept a secret,” he said.
Dabholkar was shot in the head twice by two gunmen on Omkareshwar Bridge.u00a0
