Ballia Case: Are caste & community bigger than someone's life?

BJP MLA from Ballia, Surendra Singh, came out to defend Dhirendra Singh, an accused in the firing incident at a Panchayat meeting in which one person was killed. The victim's family is demanding a CBI probe into the matter.

Why the main accused is still at large? Why BJP MLA is defending the accused? Are caste and community bigger than someone's life?
