RSS-BJP threat behind change in main witness’ statement, responds Sandeepananda Giri

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Sandeepananda Giri says RSS and BJP are behind the change in statement of Prashanth, a resident of Kundamanakadavu, who is the main witness in the ashram burning case. “Prashanth is under pressure and threatened by them. The investigation will not be sabotaged. The evidence has been received.,”, said Sandeepana Giri.

Prashanth had earlier stated that it was his brother and his friends who burnt the ashram of Sandeepananda Giri. Prashanth said that his brother Prakash had told him about this before he committed suicide. But this has been corrected in the confidential statement given to the court. The confidential statement is that he knows nothing about the ashram burning. But the Crime Branch said that they are not aware of the circumstances of the change of statement and added that they have necessary evidence.
