Uttar Pradesh Police on Saturday informed about the arrest of the main organiser, Dev Prakash Madhukar, along with two other suspects, Ram Prakash Shakya and Sanju Yadav in the Hathras stampede case. The arrests come amid allegations of political involvement in the incident. This brings the total number of suspects in custody to nine. In a statement released by the UP DIPR, the police detailed the arrests, noting that Madhukar, who had a reward of Rs 1 lakh on his head, was apprehended by the Hathras district SOG in Najafgarh, Delhi, on Friday evening. The subsequent arrests of Shakya and Yadav took place on Saturday in Sikandra Rao. Hathras Superintendent of Police (SP) Nipun Aggarwal elaborated on the investigation, revealing that Madhukar, who has been a long-term organiser and fundraiser for the group, was found to be in contact with certain political parties. "Based on the interrogation thus far, it appears that a political party might be involved with them for its own political and personal gains," Aggarwal said.
