MUMBAI:

The murder, which sent shock waves through the district and state, was allegedly masterminded by Munde's close aide Walmik Karad.

Fadnavis, who has been declaring that the police will not spare anyone involved in the murder "until they are hanged to death", on Tuesday said that he did not want to be involved in "the politics of the issue".
