Police, while filing the chargesheet, told the court that this was a preliminary chargesheet and they will file a supplementary charge sheet once they get few details like emails and phone records.
Chintan is called a conspirator in the document due to his meeting with prime accused Vidyadhar Rajbhar before Hema's murder.
Also, the cops have attached Chintan's Facebook post with lyrics of song 'Alvida'. Rajbhar's confession to his mother is also part of the chargesheet.
