He demanded that police check the CCTV footage from the lodge to identify who was with Dipali before her death. "I am constantly raising my voice against illegal businesses and criminal activities in Jamkhed, but it is no longer hidden who provides shelter to these businesses. In the midst of this, news came that dancer Deepali Patil (35) committed suicide in a lodge in Jamkhed. Who was with the concerned woman before she committed suicide? What are his connections? Whose patronage from high-ranking officials does he have? And from which party did a person from his family contest elections?," Rohit Pawar wrote on X in Marathi. He also alleged that influential individuals might be trying to suppress the matter, warning that such attempts would not be tolerated."To conduct a thorough investigation into this, the police should seize the CCTV footage from the concerned lodge and solve this crime. Many people's dark faces will be exposed through this. If anyone tries to suppress this case to deny justice to the concerned woman, we will not allow that to succeed," he wrote further.MLA Pawar reiterated that illegal businesses continue to operate in Jamkhed under alleged political protection and stressed that a fair investigation is necessary to bring out the truth.Meanwhile, Dipali’s relatives have accused one Sandeep Gaikwad of pressuring her to marry him, claiming this harassment drove her to suicide. Reports suggest that Gaikwad is associated with the ruling party. Police are investigating the matter and the allegations made by the family.
