According to the police, during interrogation Pandey said “my Guruji was not getting Z-category security as enjoyed by VHP leaders like Ashok Singhal and Praveen Togadia, so we took the step after Guruji gave us the consent”.
“After we arrested the duo Vedanti told us that he knew them and requested us not to take any legal action against them. So we released them,” Superintendent of Police Gyaneshwar Tiwari said.
