Rajasthan Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) on June 30, recovered two blood-stained weapons used in the murder of Kanhaiya Lal, reports India Today. The weapons were recovered from an office of an aide of both the accused in Udaipur's Sapetiya locality. During the interrogation, the accused, Riyaz Akhtari and Ghaus Mohammad, told the officials that after killing Kanhaiya Lal, they went to Shoaib's office in Sapetiya and recorded the video. Riyaz and Ghaus told the officials that they shot the video confessing their crime at Shoaib's office and made it viral on social media. Both the accused also recorded a video from the same office on June 17 in which one of the two men described his intentions of carrying out an act similar to what happened in Udaipur on June 28.
The Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the case found out two of the prime accused had travelled twice to Saudi Arabia twice and once to Nepal in order to get funding. One of the prime accused, Riyaz, during the interrogation said that he would incite the youth to attack people from other religions. Sources said that Riaz used to say: "Take revenger or wear bangles". Riyaz had also released a video that incited history-sheeters and miscreants of Udaipur to attack. Both Gaus Mohammad and Riyaz were instigating poor and unemployed youth in Udaipur, Bhilwara, Ajmer, Rajsamand, Tonk, Bundi, Banswara, Jodhpur districts and connecting them to sleeper cells. The sleeper cells that came were being built for IS and funding has also been done from Arab countries for this.
