On March 28 at 10.30 pm, Mukhtar Ansari, a politician-cum-mafia, died of a heart attack during treatment in the medical college.
A few hours later in the night, Sharma received a call from an unknown person on his CUG number 9454418281 from a landline number 0135-261349.
The caller used abusive words in the 14 second voice and threatened to kill him. Sharma informed the top officials of the police administration about the matter. After this, a case was filed by the Superintendent in the city police station on Sunday evening.
Additional Superintendent of Police, Banda, Lakshmi Niwas Mishra said here on Monday: “The threatening number is being investigated. The number has not been traced yet. Who could be behind this is a matter of investigation. It is too early to say anything in this matter.”
Sharma disclosed that the threat was received only a few hours after Mukhtar Ansari’s death but nothing can be said clearly until the investigation is completed.
