The police officer said the municipal chairman and his family members got Sayeed Bawazeer killed by Ahmed Bin Hajeb as he was blackmailing them with his social media posts about illegal activities and lack of development in the municipality.
Bawazeer was allegedly extorting money from the family but after some time continued the blackmail.
“They felt that Bawazeer was defaming their family and decided to eliminate him. They used Ahmed Bin Hajeb as a tool by offering him Rs 13 lakh. Since the victim and the main accused had homosexual relationship, they thought that the murder would be seen as a fallout of the same. However, an in-depth investigation revealed the conspiracy behind the murder,” the DCP said.

The deceased had also tried to commit unnatural sex with Ayub Khan but the latter had refused.
On the night of August 10, the main accused along with Ayub Khan brought a boy to Bawazeer.
The deceased took the boy inside a room and after some time when the boy came out, Ahmed threw chilli powder in the eyes of Bawazeer and stabbed him to death.
After the murder, Ahmed, Ayub and the boy escaped from the spot on their motorcycles.
