The Central Bureau of Investigation on Wednesday moved the Supreme Court challenging the Calcutta high court order asking it to launch a fresh probe and register a murder case in the death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman, who was found dead near a railway track.
The Calcutta High Court on Thursday held that computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman's death in September last was a suicide and not murder.
The family of Rizwanur Rehman on Friday expressed doubts about the authenticity of media reports, which claimed that the Central Bureau of Investigation has concluded that the computer graphics teacher had committed suicide. Rizwanur's mother Keshwar Jahan said she would never accept that her son committed suicide. ''He was not the type of boy who can commit suicide.'' she said. Keshwar said that she would wait for the CBI report.
Former Kolkata police commissioner Prasun Mukherjee was on Tuesday questioned for the first time by the Central Bureau of Investigation in connection with the mysterious death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman.
The Calcutta High Court on Thursday directed the Central Bureau of Investigation to file a chargesheet against all seven accused in the Rizwanur Rehman death case.
The CBI is understood to have come to the conclusion that Rizwanaur Rehman, a computer graphics teacher of Kolkata, had committed suicide and is likely to book two members of the Todi family and two police officers alleged abetment.
In the first part of an exclusive interview to rediff.com's Managing Editor Sheela Bhatt, Rizwanur mother Kishwar Jehan spoke of how Ashok Todi came to their humble home and desperately tried to persuade his daughter to return. She says he even offered the family a blank cheque if they let Priyanka return to her home In the second and final part, she speaks how the Todi family aided by the police and goons pressured the newlyweds and 'forced' Priyanka to return home.
Priyanka said though she had been summoned by the police after her marriage to Rizwan on August 18, 'no police officer had ill-treated her,' a member of the Women's Commission said on Wednesday on condition of anonymity.
