Naushad Kashimji, was brutally murdered on April 9, 2009.
Nusrath Jahan, widow of advocate Naushad Kashimji, who was brutally murdered on April 9, 2009, got some reprieve on Thursday, as the Karnataka high court directed the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to inquire into the case.
Nusrath contended that she had striven hard to find the culprits responsible for killing her husband. What has occurred so far was only a farce of an investigation, she held, as the charge-sheet papers revealed that the so-called accused had been given good chances of gaining an acquittal.
There are four police officers among the accused, and the investigation was being carried out by an officer subordinate to the four, the slain advocate’s widow said. The case had come up for hearing before justice Mohana Shanthana Goudar, who directed the CBI to conduct an inquiry.
Notices in Gita case
The high court on Thursday issued notices to the state government in a case challenging its move to undertake a Bhagavad Gita programme for primary and secondary school teachers.
The Karnataka State Minorities Educational Institutions Managements Federation had filed the petition in the high court opposing the state’s move.
Directive to Siddaiah
The high court on Thursday directed BBMP commissioner Siddaiah to be present in the court on July 21, if he did not file a statement of objections regarding a case challenging the demolition of a building by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) on Kalasipalyam Main Road.
BBMP had constructed the building and let out tenements in it to different people, who remained tenants for 40 years. On October 29, 2009, the petitioners were aghast when the BBMP came with a number of employees, police personnel and gave warning to the petitioners that they should vacate in no time.
This was because the petitioners could not pay the monthly rent that had been enhanced from Rs200 to Rs400. However, the buildings were demolished in December 2009.
