The Bengaluru Police Commissioner T. Sunil Kumar today said that in the murder case of senior journalist Gauri Lankesh they are looking at all angles to nab the accused.
"The preliminary investigation is that at around 8:00 a.m. the .neighbours heard cracker like sound and when they went out they saw Gauri lying on the floor. Immediately, they informed the police. The forensic team went there and collected a lot of evidence. We could also get the CCTV Footage. So the CCTV footage shows that as soon as she opens the gate of her car, a person who is wearing the helmet comes and fires on her and runs away. There were four rounds of firing that took place, out of which three rounds hit Gauri. We are also looking at the CCTV footage," Kumar said.
"It is a challenging task and the Karnataka Police will take this challenge. We cannot give a time limit. The government has already asked our Intelligence to find the threat assessment and based on that, the security will be given," he added.
