Surat: Gujarat Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS) probing the Kamlesh Tiwari murder case has found that one of the key suspects involved in the murder case has created a fake identity to befriend the deceased Hindu Samaj Party leader through social media. Local leader Jaimin Bapu has told Gujarat ATS that a man named Ashfaq created an account on Facebook with the fake name of Rohit Solanki in June this year to connect with the Hindu Samaj Party leader who was shot dead at his residence in the Naka area of Uttar Pradesh's Lucknow on Friday.

He also said Kamlesh was scheduled to meet Rohit on October 18, the day when he was murdered. Earlier, Uttar Pradesh Director General of Police OP Singh had also stated that accused knew Tiwari as they spent around 30 minutes with him on the pretext of gifting him sweets. DGP Singh had said that the shooting of Tiwari was "purely a criminal activity conducted by two people".
