"Wadher was transferred to his current posting because of the pressure exerted by Solanki on the Junagadh district superintendent of police," alleged Jethava's father, Bhikhu Jethava. Bhikhu also claimed that Wadher and many of his associates were working for Solanki.

The police officer was posted at Surendranagar before being transferred to Kodinar. "He is suspected of involvement in many crimes during his posting in Kodinar, including murder," Bhikhu Jethava said. Later, Wadher was transferred to Una from Kodinar and then again to Surendranagar.

"From Surendranagar, he was transferred to his last posting due to Solanki's influence," Bhikhu claimed.
