Speaking at the tribute event, PAC convenor L Pishu Sharma recalled that the lifeless body of Pravish was found cremated in a suspicious manner that smacks of criminal conspiracy on September 9, 2017 despite having filed a missing person report at Greater Noida police station, UP, People of the state thus formed PAC and launched protest against the suspicious death of Pravish, he said, while adding that the committee along with student organisations, CSOs and Meira paibi groups jointly launched protests demanding justice.
Subsequently, the CBI took up the case for investigation.
The desire of PAC and family of Pravish is to find out the truth about his death and to prevent such unfortunate incident from happening to any one in future, Pishu maintained, while adding that the committee is prepared to move the case to the Supreme Court if there is any sign of weakness in the probe by CBI.
