New Delhi: National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Thursday filed a chargesheet against 11 accused in the case of the brutal killing of Kanhaiya Lal Teli, a tailor in Rajasthan’s Udaipur by two assailants on June 28 this year.
The investigation agency filed the chargesheet before the NIA Special Court in Jaipur.

As per the investigation agency, the accused arranged deadly knives or arms and murdered Kanhaiya Lal in reaction to his Facebook Post and attacked a co-worker in his shop in broad daylight. “They made a video of the killing, released and made it viral. They also shot another threatening video with the intention of striking terror among the people of India,” the NIA said in a statement.
