Mumbai: Maharashtra government has ordered a probe into the missing bulletproof vest of slain ATS chief Hemant Karkare, state Home Minister R R Patil on Sunday said.
"A probe has been ordered and once the report is submitted to me, I would be able to say how the vest had gone missing and where it is," Patil told reporters after inaugurating a police gymkhana in central Mumbai.
Kavita Karkare, wife of the ATS chief had last week said her husband's bulletproof jacket has gone missing.
"When his body was found, the bulletproof jacket was missing... even at the hospital... I filed an RTI application few months back asking where the jacket is but the reply I got was that it is missing," Kavita had told PTI.
Karkare, a 1982 batch IPS officer, was killed in an ambush near Cama Hospital, along with another IPS officer Ashok Kamte and encounter specialist Vijay Salaskar during the November 26 carnage in 2008.
