Lucknow: The Central
Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is likely to begin a probe into the
murder of Uttar Pradesh deputy superintendent of police (DSP)
Zia-ul-Haq and two others Thursday, officials said.
The "request letter" by the state government reached the CBI
office late Wednesday, following which an approval was sought from
the department of personnel and training (DoPT), said an official
who did not wish to be named.
Following a go ahead, the CBI formally registered a case in
connection with the killings of Haq, village head Nanhe Yadav and
his brother Suresh during violence at Balipur village in
Pratapgarh district, some 100 km from here, late Saturday,
officials told IANS.
A team has been constituted to probe the murders. The CBI has also
compiled the newspaper clippings and video recordings of the
violence, officials said.
"Spade work in the matter has been done. The CBI team will now go
to the crime scene to piece together the jigsaw of the three
killings and to do some forensic work as well," a CBI official
added.
Investigation into four first information reports (FIRs) filed in
connection with the killings has been taken over by the CBI.
While two FIRs were lodged in connection with the murder of Nanhe
Yadav and Suresh by their family members, two others were lodged
by the police and the widow of the slain police officer.
In the FIR lodged by the DSP's widow Parveen, she has accused
former state minister Raghuraj Pratap Singh alias Raja Bhaiyya of
conspiring to kill her husband.
Officials said that Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of CBI Anurag
Garg is likely to visit Balipur Thursday to take stock of the
situation and proceed with the investigation.
Following Haq's killing, his widow had demanded a CBI probe into
the matter. Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav not only yielded to her
demand, but also asked the CBI to include the murders of village
head and his brother into their probe.
