The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has put a reward of Rs 2 lakh each on the heads of two absconding Madhya Pradesh police personnel, Sanjiv Singh Mavai and Uttam Singh Kushwaha. The case pertains to the death of Deva Pardhi in police custody at the Myana police station in Guna district, announced officials on Wednesday.

Officials said Sanjeet Singh Mavai was posted as an Inspector at the time, and Uttam Singh Kushwaha as an Assistant Sub-Inspector. Deva Pardhi was detained on charges of theft. He died under suspicious circumstances in police custody. The CBI has already arrested Sub-Inspector Devraj Singh Parihar, Inspector Zubair Khan, and another man and filed a charge sheet in the case. However, Mavai and Kushwaha are still absconding.

A CBI spokesperson stated that non-bailable warrants have been issued against the two policemen, and they have been declared "proclaimed offenders." He explained that the reward was announced to generate credible information from the public and lead to the arrest of the accused.
