The Central Bureau of Investigation on Thursday questioned Kolkata-based industrialist Ashok Todi, the main accused in the case relating to death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman who had married his daughter Priyanka.
The Central Bureau of Investigation has summoned Ashok Todi, the main accused in the case relating to death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rehman who had married the Hindu industrialist's daughter Priyanka, and three others for a final round of questioning.
Sleuths of the Central Bureau of Investigation on Monday interrogated Inspector General of State Police (Enforcement Branch), Nazrul Islam, in connection with the mysterious death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman. Nazrul had earlier said that he was a witness to the alleged threats by officers of the Kolkata Police to Sadiq, one of the witnesses to the marriage of Rizwanur and Priyanaka Todi, daughter of industrialist Ashok Todi.
The agency, probing the death of Rehman, will approach the Director General of Health Services (DGHS) for constituting the team of experts that would examine the post-mortem report.
Officials from the Central Bureau of Investigation on Tuesday interrogated Priyanka Todi, daughter of prime accused Ashok Todi and widow of Muslim computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rahman, who was found dead under mysterious circumstances a few days after his marriage. According to CBI sources, Priyanka fully cooperated with the officers and answered all their questions. In the last four days, the CBI has interrogated more than 20 people and has obtained helpful clues.

The judicial enquiry ordered by the West Bengal government into the mysterious death of computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rehman will not be able to unravel the truth, Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Priya Ranjan Dasmunshi said on Monday. The minister also demanded an inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation into the matter. "Only a CBI enquiry can bring justice to the grief-stricken mother of the deceased," said Dasmunshi.

Rehman's body was found beside train tracks in Dum Dum in Kolkata on September 21.
The Calcutta High Court on Wednesday asked the West Bengal government to produce the report of police inquest made after the discovery of the body of Rizwanur Rehman, the computer graphics teacher, whose body was found beside railway tracks a month after his marriage to the daughter of an affluent industrialist.
Ashok Todi, father-in-law of the computer graphics teacher Rizwanur Rehman, who died on September 21, 2007, on Friday denied that his daughter Priyanka had married him and claimed that she was "taken" to the Muslim youth's house.
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.
As the probe into the death of Rehman, a computer graphics teacher, was reaching its final stage, CBI sources claimed that it looked like a case of suicide and someone had definitely forced him to take this extreme step. Without naming the person, the CBI said it had zeroed down on a close relative of Priyanka. The agency would be pressing abetment to suicide case against the relative. Last month, CBI had registered a murder case against Rizwanur's father-in-law Ashok Todi
A three-member CBI team went to the spot where Rizwanur's body was found on September 21 and zeroed in on three persons stated to be present at the time of the incident.
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.
