TIL Desk/National/Chandigarh/ Haryana Police on Tuesday visited the farmhouse of BJP leader Sonali Phogat to probe a complaint of theft lodged by her family members. Phogat, a former Tik Tok star from Hisar in Haryana and a contestant on the reality TV show “Big Boss”, was brought dead to a hospital in north Goa on August 23, a day after arriving in the coastal state with two of her male companions.
Her family alleged that a laptop, digital video recorder of the CCTV cameras and some documents were stolen from the farmhouse recently, police said. They claimed that Shivam, an aide of the BJP leader’s associate Sudhir Sangwan, had taken these things from the farmhouse after the news of her death on August 23. The family also met Hisar’s Superintendent of Police Lokender Singh and demanded a thorough probe into the matter.
“A theft case was registered on their complaint a few days ago. We have assured them of a thorough investigation in the case is on,” Singh told reporters in Hisar on Tuesday. When asked what was the complaint, Singh said, “It has been stated that at the behest of one of her associates, his subordinate Shivam, who worked as an accountant, stole some documents, a laptop and other articles from the farmhouse”.
A Hisar police official also visited the farmhouse in connection with the investigations in the case. While Phogat’s family has raised suspicion of foul play in her death, her teenage daughter Yashodhara reiterated their demand of a CBI probe into the incident.
