The family of gangster Naresh Pahalajani alias Naresh Chaddi, who was found dead in mysterious circumstances in his flat on February 2, 2016, has requested the Kalyan court to change the investigating officer in the murder case, alleging that the current officer filed the closure report without probing his suspicious death.

The Khadakpada police filed the closure report in the court in October. Chaddi's brother Raju Pahalajani, through advocate Deepak Mishra, filed a protest petition in November. He has alleged that divisional Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP), Kalyan, Anil Powar started probing the case without any order from his superiors.
