Inspector and investigating officer Prakash Sapkota told Onlinekhabar that police are preparing to file a murder case against Ashish as a probe has found he killed Manisha.
He said they will submit shards of glass and undergarments recovered from the site, among others, to the court as evidence. Police had also looked into call records showing conversation between Manisha and Ashish via mobile phones and mobile messages.
Call records show the last call on Manisha’s mobile phone number was from mobile phone number registered in Ashish’s name, at 8:32:27 pm on May 25.
Police had conducted a polygraph test on Ashish to get the facts. The test is meant to find whether the suspect is lying or telling the truth.
In the test, Ashish had denied role in the killing of Manisha, sister of ace footballer Bimal Gharti Magar. His denial had matched with Ashish’s initial statement on the case.
