The city police has opposed in the Delhi High Court a woman's plea seeking CBI probe into the death of her 30-year-old businessman-husband who was allegedly abducted and killed by eight policemen here.
The Delhi Police, in an affidavit submitted before Justice Pratibha Rani, has said that since an independent judicial probe of the incident has been carried out by a magistrate and reports sent to National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), there is no reason to have a fresh investigation by CBI or any other agency.
It has said that it has "fairly" carried out the probe and has also filed a charge sheet in the case against the accused policemen.
It has also said that it will file a supplementary charge sheet in the case, if it is required.
The Delhi Police has said that interim compensation of Rs two lakh has been ordered to be paid to the victim's family in the matter by the South West District Legal Services Authority and thus, the plea for Rs 10 lakh compensation sought by the woman "would not lie in the facts and circumstances of the present case".
The court today listed the matter for further hearing on January 7, 2015, by when the petitioner can file a response to the affidavit of the Delhi Police.
According to the petition filed through advocate Gaurav Kumar Bansal, the businessman, Manoj Rana, was allegedly abducted on May 26 by eight policemen and taken to an undisclosed location.
Police later said Manoj was an accused in a case of opening fire during a wedding in Uttam Nagar locality here and it had been looking for him since the case was registered, his wife, Rishi Rana, has said in her petition.
She has said the accused policemen were forcing Manoj to confess that he had an illegal weapon which was used by him to open fire at the marriage party.
"As he refused to admit any false claims, it had annoyed the policemen who then beat Manoj Rana to death," she has said.
Rishi has also alleged that prior to the incident, the policemen had come to her house on May 19 and threatened to kill her husband.
