    Great news...when Cain killed his brother Abel, his blood cried unto God from the ground. Please read Genesis chapter 4 in Bible. There's may no justice upon this earth, but each one of us going to stand judgement seat of Christ. There will be no bribe, power, position or influence will work. Culprit shout brought to the justice, for a lessons to others.

    The Delay in investigation is the sole reason that Muderers are confident in our country. . With such delays evidences will vanish.

    Let TRUTH PREVAIL. LET CID DO IMPARTIAL INQUIRY and submit report. Let the JUDICIARY give verdict and culprits be punished. Finally peace and unity PREVAIL with Shirva PARISHIONERS. RIP FR MAHESH.

    No matter the Police Investigation ended as suicide, there is certainly something suspicious that is overlooked. A priest will never go to buy a rope to do suicide, nor going to do it, he always got unfinished job at hand. One may be fishy and hiding something but priests do not go for suicide.
    Let us wait and see until CID Investigation completes.

    God the creator will not let down anyone, justice may be delayed but God will help in each & every aspect. Everybody thought the case is closed when media reported it's over but the pressure from people & help from God kept the case alive thereby transferring the case to CID, justice will be delivered.

    This was need of the hour. Like Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide case, Fr. Mahesh's case also shrouded in deep mystery. Truth must come out to restore the confidence of general public.
