<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Ravindra said, "We collected Rs 35 lakh out of which three lakh was paid to her". He said he was introduced to Kavita by a local leader of Khurja, Rajbir Pradhan.

Two Samajwadi Party ministers Chaudhry Babulal and Kiranpal Singh also linked to the lecturer`s disappearance have denied it saying they were being politically maligned.

<b>Babulal had admitted to speaking with Kavita a number of times "to help her with her career as she was a member of his Jat community."</b>

Singh said in Meerut his name was "being dragged into it due to personal enmity".

Sikhera parried all questions and barbs from journalists that police was trying to "shield" the two ministers.

Ravindra Pradhan denied he had accused involvement of Singh who is related to him.

He said <b>Kavita was pregnant at the time of murder. He also said that the CD on Meerajuddin was given to him after taking money from him. </b>
