A source close to the investigation told TNM, "During the course of investigation, we have had reason to believe that the group which is suspected of killing Gauri Lankesh was planning to kill KS Bhagwan next". An SIT officer involved in the probe countered, "If Naveen Kumar is not associated with Sanatan Sanstha, and is an insignificant person, why have all these lawyers been sent to fight on his behalf?"
Naveen Kumar, who has been detained in the Gauri Lankesh murder case, is being questioned, and his custody has been extended for five more days.
According to Indian Express report, a Bengaluru city court gave the Special Investigation Team (SIT) five-day additional custody of the suspect to take him to locations in Goa and Belgaum.
