The body of the BSF trooper has been sent for autopsy and the report is expected by Saturday evening. Among those charged with Rathwa's custodial death is a sub-inspector.

Rathwa had complained to officials at the Kawant police station that his daughter had eloped with a boy a few day ago and married him.

On Friday, Rathwa learnt that policemen in Kawant had produced his daughter in court without telling him. This angered him and he attacked Dadiya following an argument over the issue.
