A day after the renowned art director Nitin Desai was found dead, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Ashish Shelar on Friday urged the government to investigate not only the death of the art director but also the `person` behind Edelweiss ARC chairman Rashesh Shah.

"A Marathi Manoos, with available resources in the market, took a loan through a legal process, but were there attempts to bring him in trouble by misusing the law? Until yesterday, I had two more such cases against Rashesh Shah and ARC Edelweiss company. But since yesterday, I have come across a few more cases where both Shah and ARC Edelweiss inappropriately used legal procedures and set up a modern-day money lending business. Hence, their purpose also needs to be investigated. Additionally, it must be looked into whether their sole purpose was to try and take over the studio created by a Marathi Manoos," said Shelar.
