The investigation was handed over to SOG after widespread protests. Jaroli had initially disappeared after the SOG initiated the probe but later made himself available for questioning.
Unknown people pasted posters of DP. The paster announced a reward of Rs 11 to anyone who revealed the whereabouts of Jaroli.
