"We have sought emergency visa and have been told that we are also required to be present in the United Kingdom to complete the procedures for handing over Anuj's body," his brother-in-law Rakesh Sonawane told reporters in Pune
Rakesh Sonawane, the brother-in-law of Anuj Bidve, has sought help from Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan to expedite the process of getting the murdered youth's body back home as early as possible. Anuj, 23, a student of Lancaster University, United Kingdom since the last three months, was murdered in Salford in Greater Manchester on December 26 when he was out with his friends in Salford for a vacation.
Slain Indian student Anuj Bidve's parents have viewed his body for the first time at a funeral parlour in London, more than a week after the Pune boy was killed in an unprovoked attack in the British city of Salford.
