Gulabi Shetty, has claimed that Rajeshwari's brother-in-law also called Bhaskar Shetty and nephew Balakrishna Shetty might have involved in the conspiracy to kill her son, who owned business establishments in Saudi Arabia and Udupi.

The elderly woman also requested the police to the call records of these two persons from July 28 to August 7, so that they can get a clear picture of their alleged involvement.

In a memorandum forwarded to Shobha Karandlaje, MP of Udupi-Chikkamagaluru constituency, and to Oscar Fernandes, Congress leader and Rajya Sabha, she has demanded investigation by the CID or by an experienced officer citing the inefficiency of the police.

Police have so far arrested five accused in the case: Bhaskar Shetty's wife Rajeshwari Shetty, their son Navneeth Shetty, their astrologer friend Niranjan Bhat, his father Krishna Bhat, and accomplice Raghavendra.

KT Balakrishna, superintendent of police, Udupi visited the crime spot at Nandilakke on Saturday. He said, "The investigating team has taken Niranjan Bhat for mahajar in the area where the body was burnt. There are three teams working on the case and collecting circumstantial evidence."

Sources said Rajeshwari, prior to the murder, purchased pepper spray from Radha Medicals, a pharmacy near Udupi bus stand on July 27. She went to the medical shop with two persons. Police took the CCTV footage from the medical shop. Police are trying to ascertain the identity of the two persons seated in the car.

It is also said that police managed to trace the clothes which the accused wore during the crime. The blood-stained clothes, which had been given to a laundry, gave police some clues.

Life is a blessing from the CREATOR of all that exists
Marriage is a blessing for human desire and needs which can prevent from falling in lust and other bad habits.
Childrens are a blessing as well.
ISLAM says there will be ups and downs in life and in times of calamity be patience and ask ALLAH in Salah.
In times of happiness Dont forget to praise the CREATOR ALLAH.

Quran explains some of the unseen world which ALLAH created... Unless people search for it .. We will be IGNORANT of the unseen world. Its a difference when we PONDER On what QURAN says. LIFE will be easy to cope with the situation U face in our daily LIFE...

Every Crime happens, there is a part of unseen involved in it.. (a clue is Magicians,Soothsayers and such people use this unseen power by rejecting god's word - Which will take them to hell(eternal) if they continue and never repent)

Those who are still not read QURAN, Please read and Ponder on what it says... It will save the husband wife hate relationship and it clearly gives US. Y evil happens in this temporary world...

ALLAH guides those who are honest. Allah knows best.
