Bhanwari Devi allegedly had in her possession sex CDs showing her with the two political leaders and was blackmailing them.
According to the CBI, Maderna hired hit man Shahabuddin and his gang to carry out the kidnap and murder. They then handed over her body to another gang led by Bishna Ram Bishnoi who burnt the body in a pit outside Jaloda and scattered the remains in the canal.
