Even if it files a closure report, I will move the SC and continue to fight till my son is brought back home. In July again, the agency had first indicated that it wants to file a closure report in the case. How can the CBI be a premier investigating agency when it has failed to find a student? I have also been saying this from day one that I will withdraw the case if he is returned to me,” she added. The security guards and warden of the varsity also told me that he was beaten up.

Bareilly: A day after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) told the Delhi high court that it wanted to file a closure report in the case of missing JNU student Najeeb Ahmed, his mother Fatima Nafees on Wednesday said that she was heartbroken and will move the Supreme Court for help.“I am ashamed and heartbroken that our country’s finest agency has decided to wash its hands off the case. How can the CBI be a premier investigating agency when it has failed to find a student? If it cannot trace people, families should probe and solve cases on their own,” said Nafees.Ahmed, 27, disappeared on October 2016 from the varsity campus reportedly after a scuffle between him and some ABVP supporters. In May this year, a year after the case was handed over to CBI, the probe agency had told the Delhi HC that Ahmed’s disappearance was only a “missing” person case as it had “not found any evidence” to show that any crime was committed. In July again, the agency had first indicated that it wants to file a closure report in the case. On Tuesday, it said that it was not even sure if an offence is made out on Ahmed’s mysterious disappearance from the university campus nearly two years ago.“We are not satisfied with the CBI probe as the agency has supported the accused. Even if it files a closure report, I will move the SC and continue to fight till my son is brought back home. We want an independent team to trace him. Each department, including the police, has some good people and I am hopeful that I will get justice,” said Nafees, a native of Badaun’s Vaidontola locality, who travels to Delhi regularly for court hearings.“The CBI had earlier admitted to me that Ahmed was assaulted. But in the courtroom it claimed nothing has happened to my son. The security guards and warden of the varsity also told me that he was beaten up. I believe he is alive and kept hostage. I have also been saying this from day one that I will withdraw the case if he is returned to me,” she added.
