The wives, parents, relatives and villagers of the deceased Anil Hidko, Rameshwar Negi, Suresh Teta say that they all had left with rice and pulses saying they were going to get rope. Now is the time for harvesting Tendu leaves. Tendu leaves are plucked in April and everyone arranges ropes for that.

The complaints of the villagers are very serious and sensitive. The allegations have been leveled against the police.

The Congress Party demands that the encounter be investigated under the supervision of a sitting High Court judge.
