CBI probe demanded

January 22, 2015 01:14 am | Updated 01:14 am IST - RAIPUR:

Families of the victims of the Jiram Ghati Maoist attack have expressed reservations over the National Investigation Agency probe and demanded a CBI probe into the incident in which over 30 people, including senior Congress leaders, were killed in May 2013.

A delegation of the victims’ family members, led by the Leader of the Opposition in the Chhattisgarh Assembly T.S. Singh Deo, called on Chief Minister Raman Singh on Tuesday and demanded that the case be investigated by the CBI.

“We have no faith in the NIA inquiry now. They have sidelined some basic angles of the probe. We have requested the CM to recommend a CBI probe into the attack,” said Chhabindra Karma, younger son of deceased Congress leader Mahendra Karma
