Sonali Phogat Death Case: Goa Police on Thursday arrested two persons and registered murder charges against them in connection with the death of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sonali Phogat.
The accused have been identified as Sonali's PA Sudhir Sangwan and his friend Sukhwinder Wasi. When Phogat reached Goa on August 22, Sangwan and Wasi accompanied her.
Phogat's brother Rinku Dhaka had named both in a complaint to Anjuna police on Wednesday.
Since Sonali's death, her PA Sudhir and friend Sukhwinder are under constant questioning. When the Haryana assembly elections were held in 2019, BJP declared Sonali Phogat as its candidate from Adampur.
During this time Sudhir Sangwan and Sukhwinder Wasi came in contact with Sonali. When the elections were over, Sudhir started working as Sonali's PA.
Later Sukhwinder also came in contact with Sonali. While Sudhir is a resident of Rohtak, Sukhwinder is a resident of Bhiwani. As time passed, both of them won Sonali's trust.
Sonali's family alleges that over time Sudhir ousted Sonali's old staff and took all the control into his own hands.
According to the allegations of the family, Sudhir had an eye on Sonali's property and before her death, Sonali had called and told that she would file a complaint against Sudhir.
It is alleged in the complaint that he was raping Sonali for 3 years and was also blackmailing her by making videos.
Not only this, but the family is also calling PA Sudhir Sangwan an accused in the theft at Sonali's farmhouse.
