An FIR has been filed against Katni City Superintendent of Police Neha Pachisia in connection with an alleged land-grab case in Bhopal. The family of a murder case suspect claims they were coerced into selling their land and paying Rs 75 lakh to secure the suspect's release from jail. The allegations were reported to the Chief Minister, Human Rights Commission, and court.
The Inspector General assigned an inquiry into the matter. Katni Police arrested Akash Lodhi on April 3, 2026, for the murder of a tribal youth. He alleged that CSP Neha Pachisia and police station in-charge Rajendra Mishra pressured his family to sell their land after his arrest. According to the complaint, his father was made to stay at the CSP's residence for two days and was taken to register 2.15 hectares of land in Kanhwara village.
The land was sold for Rs 1.07 crore, while the family only received a cheque for Rs 15 lakh. They were promised the remaining Rs 92 lakh within seven days. Despite lodging an objection to the mutation of the property, it was allegedly registered in the name of Maruf Ahmed Hanafi.
