The city crime branch finally reached BJP MP from Junagadh, Dinu Solanki, in the RTI activist Amit Jethava murder case.

According to sources, the MP has been interrogated by the investigating agency, which believes Solanki was connected with the murder as per the evidence gathered during investigation. However, Solanki has denied the charges.

Sources also said that the MP's name cropped up during the interrogation of his nephew Shiva Solanki, who was taken to police remand after his arrest last month. During his questioning, he reportedly gave many details about Jethava's killing.

The crime branch is still looking for two persons allegedly involved in the killing, Shailesh Pandya and his associate, who are believed to be present on the spot, where Jethava was shot dead.

Jethava was killed on July 20 evening in front of the Gujarat high court campus on SG Highway.
