Vaze had joined the Shiv Sena in 2008 while under suspension.
Vaze was suspended in the Khwaja Yunus custodial death case and but was reinstated in his job last year during the COVID-19 lockdown, Fadnavis said. When I was the chief minister, the issue of reinstating Vaze had come up but the advocate general had advised against it, Fadnavis said.
While announcing the SIT probe in the Delkar case, home minister Deshmukh said the MP had said in the suicide note that he was ending his life in Mumbai as he had faith in Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra government.
