AGARTALA, 13 Jan:<\/strong> The family of Tripura’s Anjel Chakma, who was killed in Dehradun in an alleged racial attack, has sought a CBI probe into the case.<\/p>\n

Anjel, an MBA student from Tripura’s Pecharthal area, died after a fatal attack on 9 December, which his family alleged was racially motivated.<\/p>\n

Anjel’s father, Tarun Kanti Chakma, met Tipra Motha founder Pradyot Debbarma in Agartala on Monday and put forward the demand for a CBI probe.<\/p>\n

The father, who is a BSF jawan posted in Manipur, said a month has gone by since Anjel’s death, but the family doesn’t have any updates about the case.<\/p>\n

“We heard five persons have been arrested, but the prime accused is still on the run. My family wants a CBI probe into the murder to ensure speedy justice,” he said.<\/p>\n

He also urged the government to provide him with a posting in Delhi, so that he can fight the case effectively.<\/p>\n

“I have sought support from the ‘maharaja’ (Debbarma) in the battle for justice, and he assured me of extending all possible support,” he said.<\/p>\n

Debbarma said he has been in touch with Anjel’s family since the day the incident took place in Dehradun.<\/p>\n

“Despite the gruesomeness of the incident, the police registered an FIR three days later,” he said.<\/p>\n

“Today, the 24-year-old promising man has become a racial victim, and tomorrow another could meet the same fate. We all should fight for justice, irrespective of political beliefs,” he said.<\/p>\n

Asserting that the country does not belong only to “similar-looking people,” the scion of the former royal family assured that he would do whatever he can to ensure that Anjel’s family gets justice.(PTI)<\/p>\n
