Terming the murder of the Kunda Circle Offcer Ziaul Haque as a “heinous crime”,the Centre on Wednesday said it has asked the Uttar Pradesh government to submit a report into the incident and ensure strict action against culprits. “What happened in Pratapgarh is unfortunate. Policing and public order is a state subject. However,in this case,we have written to the UP government for details,” Minister of State for Home Affairs R P N Singh told reporters outside Parliament here. Asked if SP MLA Raja Bhaiyya should be arrested,he said: “I don’t want to talk about any individual. The DSP was an efficient officer,he was doing a good job and was an honest officer,and if such a heinous crime is committed against him,whoever is involved should be punished.” He expressed confidence that the CBI will go the root of the case and bring the guilty to book.
