BJP leader Ashish Shelar on Thursday asked whether Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh was pressurising police officials who are conducting inquriy into a 'Free Kashmir' poster displayed at a recent protest.

He also objected to Deshmukh's statement that the probe into judge B H Loya's death could be reopened if necessary.

The BJP had targeted the Uddhav Thackeray-led government over a poster saying "Free Kashmir" held up by a woman during a protest against the violence at Jawaharlal Nehru University at the Gateway of India here.
