Senior Maharashtra Congress leader Vijay Wadettiwar on Sunday demanded that the investigation into the Beed Sarpanch murder case be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

According to  news agency PTI, Wadettiwar criticised the Devendra Fadnavis government in Maharashtra and stated that while the authorities could arrest the accused in the Beed Sarpanch murder case within 24 hours if they chose to, they did nothing despite all fingers pointing towards one person.
