Briefing the media about the latest development in the case, Lucknow IG Lakshmi Singh stated that two people were being questioned who had several insights into the incident. “Two people are being questioned. They’ve confirmed the role of three others who are dead. Technically, they have also been accounted for. These people are giving a lot of information. We are sending summon to the main accused (Ashish Mishra) for questioning,” Singh said.
