Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis responded to NCP MLA Rohit Pawar’s demand for an international agency probe into Ajit Pawar’s plane crash incident saying Indian investigating agencies are capable and should be trusted.

On Wednesday, asserting that one should trust Indian agencies, Fadnavis said, “If anyone has evidence or information, they should share it with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation or the investigating agency. It will help the investigation.”


Fadnavis was responding to NCP chief Sharad Pawar’s grandnephew Rohit, who on Tuesday said he cannot rule out the possibility of a conspiracy in the plane crash incident. The MLA even demanded that instead of a probe by the state CID, three agencies — one from the central government and two international expert agencies — should be involved in the investigation. “The truth will come out in the investigation,” he added.



Meanwhile, on Wednesday, Rohit addressed a press conference in Delhi, raising several questions that he felt pointed to a conspiracy in the plane crash incident and needed to be investigated. Rohit was in Delhi to meet Union Home Minister Amit Shah to press his demand for a detailed investigation into the plane crash episode. Besides, Rohit, the family of one of the victims, flight attendant Pinky Mali’s father, too, has called for a thorough investigation.
