Nongmeibung Women Meira Paibi Association had alleged that Ashok might have been complicit in the circumstances leading to the death of Pravish Chanam’s death. Ashok is a friend of late Pravish.

General secretary of Nongmeibung Women Meira Paibi Association, Nongmaithem Sobita during a sit-in staged today at Nongmeibung market alleged Ashok that he might involve in the mysterious dead of Pravish Chanam.

It is said that Pravish came to Delhi on September 7 and stayed at his friend Ashok’s place in Safdarjung area. They planned to attend the concert of international artistes, The Chainsmokers, at Greater Noida’s Expo Mart with two other friends, Sachin and Teresa Karam, all from Manipur. Brother of Pravish, Ravikanta Chanam has said that the four friends met around with 15-16 other friends at the venue. They then consumed liquor. Pravish’s friends did not notice when he went missing. His friends launched a search after the concert but failed to trace him. The next day at 12.30 pm Ashok informed Ravikanta about his disappearance.

Sobita further said police should interrogate Ashok regarding the case as he is still absconding and his parents do not allowed him to answer any calls. The silence of Ashok seems he might involve in the case regarding the organ trafficking, she charged.

Sobita said people have been demanding to bring out the real culprits of the mysterious dead and to hand over the case to CBI. She also appealed CBI to start investigation against Noida police as they cremated Pravish by authority of Dr. BR Ambedkar hospital in Noida as unclaimed body.
