According to sources, Tawade allegedly wrote in emails sent to Akolkar in 2010 that Dabholkar was their target. We believe the last two were the killers, and Tawade and his handler the key conspirators,” a senior official linked to the probe told The Indian Express. According to sources, Tawade allegedly told interrogators that the larger plan was to raise an army of “15,000 sevaks to fight for a Hindu state”. Sources said the CBI had identified one shooter as Sarang Akolkar, who is on the run, while the identity of the other has been withheld. Sources claimed that the CBI has “technical evidence” to prove that Akolkar was in Pune in June 2013.
