17 year old case… Appeared in court more than 20 times. Paid the fees of the lawyers and appealed to the police for help countless times. After all efforts, Asha got the death of 2 brothers, police neglect and unbearable sorrow in return. In 2006, Asha’s elder brother Sahdev Singh was shot dead. When he and younger brother Dinesh fought a legal battle, the goons beat Dinesh to death with sticks on July 18.
Asha’s courage has been broken. He saw the bier of two real brothers rising in front of his eyes. Saw children crying and families falling apart. Seeing all this, he has started getting irritated with the police. Asha says, ‘More than 100 hours have passed since my brother was killed. In this time, even big mafias are caught, but the police are sitting on their hands. Had we been given security in advance, both my brothers would have been alive today.’
After Dinesh’s murder, Asha reached Sangrampur police station with her niece Shalini. An FIR was lodged against 4 influential people of the village (village head Sanjay Kumar Singh alias Munna, Deepak Singh, Pancham Singh and Ravi Shankar Pandey). Four days have passed since the case of murder of BJP’s Booth President Dinesh was filed, but the accused are still out of reach of the police.

5 people stopped Dinesh’s bike, hit him with sticks and broke his head
18 July 2023… Dhaurhara village of Sangrampur police station area of Amethi. It was around 12 in the afternoon. Dinesh was waiting for the rain to stop in his two-room kutcha house. He had to go out for some important work related to the school. The rain stopped… So Dinesh took the bike and went towards the city.
He had reached a short distance from home that suddenly 5 people came in front of his bike in the nearby market and stopped the car. Everyone’s faces were covered with cloth. There were iron rods and sticks in hand. Before Dinesh could say anything, the attackers started lathi-charge on him.
Dinesh tried to run away, but he was pushed and dropped in the mud. After this, he was dragged to the middle of the road. He killed as much as he could. Dinesh was shouting loudly but his voice was not reaching anyone. The attackers made about 4 blows on the head one after the other. Dinesh fainted. The attackers thought that he had been killed. When the attackers fled from there, the people around reached the spot. When a person put his hand on Dinesh’s chest, it was found that he was breathing.
- When his brother-in-law Nyay Singh came to know about the attack on Dinesh, he rushed to the spot. After the death of his sister, he used to live with Dinesh.

Nyay Singh says, “When I reached there, Dinesh Jija was lying on the road. His whole body was covered in blood. His tongue was sticking out, he was breathing. People threw water on his face, but he did not get up. After that, with the help of people, I somehow took him to the Sangrampur Health Center. The doctors there got him bandaged and referred him to the Gauriganj district hospital. After treatment, when the brother-in-law regained consciousness, he was taking the names of Munna Singh and some people from the village, but his His condition was so bad that he died in a short time.
‘My father’s killers were the ones who shot my elder father’
Deceased Dinesh Singh had married his only daughter Shalini in 2020. His in-laws house is in Mau district. She reached the village as soon as she got the news of her father’s death. He has given Tahrir against the attackers in Sangrampur police station. Shalini says, ‘Papa was the booth president of the BJP. The villagers used to come to him with source-recommendations. On the day he was murdered, he had gone to the city for admission of someone’s children. People used to respect him a lot, because at his behest government work was done easily. But Munna Singh and his people used to get irritated by this.
According to Shalini, in August, her father Dinesh was supposed to testify for the last time in the Sahdev Singh murder case, after which the convicts would be sentenced. But before that Munna Singh along with his men got Dinesh Singh killed.
After the brutal murder of her father, 26-year-old Shalini has returned to her maternal home from her in-laws’ house, but she is afraid that the accused partymen may kill her too. The police is also busy investigating the accused on their Tahrir, so the danger has not averted yet. At present, police force has been deployed in front of Shalini’s house.
Dinesh made the last call to his sister, said- Death is on the head…
Dinesh Singh was fighting the case of murder of Sahdev Singh which took place 17 years ago. Dinesh was also murdered before his testimony could prove vital to the case. Dinesh had already foreshadowed the incident that happened. He often used to tell sister Asha over the phone that he was receiving death threats. Death is on his head.
Asha told, ‘A day before the murder, Bhaiya (Dinesh) called me. He was nervous. They were saying that the accused party is threatening them to withdraw the case. He was being asked not to testify by luring money. Saying this, Asha starts crying. After a while she remains silent and then says- ‘Ever since the case of murder of Sahdev Bhaiya started, we were getting death threats continuously. We had complained about this at Sangrampur police station, but nothing happened. You tell me… when the police is also in collusion with the bullies, then who will listen to the poor.’
