Update: Five years after Karnataka police said Paresh Mesta's death wasn't a case of murder, Now even CBI concludes it was an 'accidental death' and was because of drowning.
Remember how the death was given communal spin by BJP leaders and News Anchors? #PareshMesta

Here's how India Today invited BJP members who gave communal spin.

Here is what India Today tweeted questioning the then Karnataka Congress Govt :

"Karnataka government trying to influence investigation?"

BJP members wanted a CBI probe as it wasn't satisfied with Karnataka Police Probe. Wonder what they have yo say now as the CBI has concluded that it was accidental death and not a communal murder.

Do listen to Padmaja, She looks shocked after Police findings..
"Is the Govt and the Police going to explain how did Paresh die then?"

Rajnath Singh had targetted the then Congress Govt for his death. Amit Shah visited his house, says (our Karyakarta), This was refuted by his father that Paresh wasn't associated with any political party. Several BJP members met Rajnath Singh demanding NIA inquiry.

That the CBI has concluded that it was an accidental death and not a communal murder, Will the News Channel apologise, Will it the same BJP members and debate on CBI findings? Will the BJP members apologise?
