Bhanwari killing: Accused husband retracts statement

By IANS,

Jodhpur : Rajasthan nurse Bhanwari Devi’s husband Amarchand, arrested on charges of conspiring to abduct her last year, Tuesday retracted his statement made before a magistrate here, sources said.

The development came as a setback for the Central Bureau of Investigation which, in a chargesheet filed in a court earlier, said that Amarchand was involved in the conspiracy of Bhanwari Devi’s kidnap from Jodhpur’s Bilara area Sep 1, 2011.

The CBI says she was later killed.
