Mumbai: The Government Railway Police (GRP) on Friday gave a clean chit to three Anil Durubhai Ambani Group (ADAG) officials, including former Maharashtra Director General of Police K K Kashyap, in the alleged suicide of Bharat Borge.
Railway Police claim the three officials were not involved in the death of Borge in any way. The three security officials of ADAG had met Borge on the evening of April 27 to thank him.
The two other officials are retired assistant commissioner of police Shailesh Kale and retired Wing Commander Pradip Chawla.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Prakash Sawant said that the officials he had questioned had nothing to do with Borge's death.
"I took Wing Commander Pradip Chawla and security officer Sailesh Kale's statements. They had gone there to do their work. They commended him for detecting the pebbles and mud, and then they went away." said Sawant.
Borge was the first person to notice mud and pebbles inside the filter tank of Anil Ambani’s Bell 412 helicopter on April 23. The billionaire businessman and nine Reliance Infocomm officials were scheduled to fly in the helicopter to Navi Mumbai on April 24.
The ADAG filed a complain alleging that the sabotage was an attempt to kill Ambani.
Four employees of Airworks Indian Pvt Ltd, the company that maintained the helicopter, were arrested and then released after questioning.
Forty-five-year-old Borge, a senior technician of Airworks, was found dead on the railway tracks near Vile Parle level crossing on April 28 with severe head injuries.
Police have sought help from the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and have sent the pebbles to Forensic Science Laboratory to determine type and composition and aid the investigation.
