Patna | Tuesday | 18th September, 2018

Summary:

The apex court order would bring a huge relief to CBI which was reprimanded by HC for not constituting a new team.“We don't see any reason why the existing CBI team should be changed at this stage. We see no reason why team should be reconstituted by the special director. But the bench refrain from passing order. Referring to Rewari rape case, the bench said that the TV report says that the victim was 19-year old CBSE topper and that information was sufficient for people to identify the girl. We stay the order and direct that the probe would be conducted by a team constituted by CBI director,” the bench said.The bench also said that it would examine whether the case pending in HC should be transferred to apex court which would monitor the probe..
