Jaipur | National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Wednesday raided 31 places in Rajasthan and Haryana regarding the Sukhdev Singh Gogamedi murder case.
Raids were also conducted at the houses of the accused and several other suspects.
NIA said that they have seized a large number of pistols, ammunition, mobile phones, and digital devices including SIM cards and DVRs as well as incriminating documents related to financial transactions.

The central agency said that prime suspect, Ashok Kumar Meghwal, was also arrested from his residence in Jherli village (Jhunjhunu).
