The press conference of late Justice BH Loya\u2019s son, Anuj Loya presented a ripe ground for many such theories. The conference was arranged at the offices of the top Mumbai law firm, Naik and Naik. Along with Anuj Loya, also present at the conference were his cousin, Pratik Bhandari, Advocate Ameet B. Naik from Naik &amp; Naik and retired District Judge KB Katake who was a family friend and colleague of Justice Loya. At the conference, Anuj Loya said that his father&#8217;s death was not suspicious and the family does not want a probe. Soon after the conference was aired on TV, allegations began to emerge that the press conference was organized by BJP National President, Amit Shah. At the time of his death, Justice Loya was the presiding over a trial into Sohrabuddin Sheikh fake encounter case in which <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/Amit-Shah\">Amit Shah<\/a> was an accused.<\/p>\n<p>Jas Oberoi, a columnist at Newslaundry was first to raise suspicions about Amit Shah\u2019s role in organizing the press conference. He shared a video clip of ABP news as evidence.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/iJasOberoi\/status\/952575285060227072<\/p>\n<p>The same allegation was also made by several others including Gaurav Pandhi and Prashant Bhushan.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Loya&#39;s former colleague accidentally reveals, the PC (of Loya&#39;s son) was organized by Amit Shah himself.
