CBI officers probing the Bogtui massacre visited a petrol pump near Bogtui more in Birbhum district on Monday evening to scan the CCTV footage there after preliminary forensic reports revealed that highly inflammable fuel had been liberally used to set several houses on fire on the night of March 21.
The fuel was allegedly ferried on two e-rickshaws which, according to the CBI, were owned by Rana Sheikh and Mithun Sheikh.
The sleuths spoke to the staff at the petrol pump on Monday and wanted to identify from the CCTV footage some of those who had turned up around 8.15pm on March 21 and purchased either petrol or diesel in large quantities.
