Live Law  

The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed for a de novo investigation to be carried out in a plea seeking for a transfer of investigation from the State police to the Central Bureau of Investigation into the mysterious death of Vikrant Nagaich, a 3rd-year student at National Law University, Jodhpur, in August 2017.A Bench comprising of Justices RF Nariman, Navin Sinha and Indira. The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed for a de novo investigation to be carried out in a plea seeking for a transfer of investigation from the State police to the Central Bureau of Investigation into the mysterious death of Vikrant Nagaich, a 3rd-year student at National Law University, Jodhpur, in August 2017. A Bench comprising of Justices RF Nariman, Navin Sinha and Indira Banerjee further set aside the closure report filed by the Rajasthan Police in the investigation. The plea contended that the Petitioner was aggrieved by the manner of investigation conducted by the State Police in the case of the unfortunate and untimely demise of her only son and that this tardy investigation "leads to an inescapable and reasonable apprehension that the lackadaisical and negligent investigation and prosecution of the instant FIR is a result of probable collusion to shield some high, mighty and influential person".
