The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has announced a cash reward of Rs5 lakh for information about two suspects, Sarang Akolkar and Vinay Pawar, in connection with the murder of Pune-based rationalist Narendra Dabholkar.

On August 20, 2013, Dabholkar, a prominent anti-superstition crusader, was allegedly gunned down by two bike-borne men during his morning walk.

According to a CBI charge sheet filed in September last year, Akolkar and Pawar, two members of the right-wing organisation Sanatan Sanstha, gunned down the rationalist.

Akolkar is also a wanted accused in the 2009 Goa blast.

In June 2014, the case was handed over to the CBI after the Pune police failed to make any headway.

The central agency has released the photographs of Akolkar and Pawar, both the suspected killers, declaring the cash prize for leads.

On June 11, 2016, the CBI arrested ENT specialist Dr Virendra Tawade, a member of Hindu Janjagruti Samiti, which is affiliated to Sanstha.
