UP Engineer's Family Rejects Compensation

The family of the UP PWD engineer, killed by workers of the BSP for refusing to give donation for the Chief Minister Mayawati's birthday, refused the compensation from the government.

Manoj Gupta was beaten to death by the BSP MLA Shekhar Tiwari when he refused to give donation for Chief Minister Mayawati's birthday.

Tiwari was arrested for the killing and has been charged under the National Security Act (NSA) and Gangster Act. The post mortem report of the engineer showed two head injuries, wounds all over his body and fractures in one arm and both legs. Probe by CBI is being continuously demanded by the family of the victim despite Mayawati's refusal.

Meanwhile the political unrest over the killing continues.

Samajwadi party has now stepped in and has intensified its demand for a CBI inquiry and also has asked for the center’s intervention.
