The Crime Branch will conduct further investigation into the death of 21-year-old NRI student Anmol Sarna, who died under mysterious circumstances following an alleged drug party with friends; the Delhi Police informed a city court.
The police informed Chief Metropolitan Magistrate lokesh Kumar Sharma about the development when they produced Surender Bali (40) and Naresh Mishra (60), who were deployed as security guards at a colony in Kalkaji where Anmol was injured, before him for extension of their judicial custody.
The judicial custody of Mishra and Surender, who were arrested for allegedly assaulting Anmol which eventually lead to his death, was extended till October 28. The police told the court that the investigation of the case has been handed over to the Crime Branch. Police's response came after Anmol's family had accused the Delhi Police of shielding his four friends and framing two security guards in his murder and demanded the case be investigated by the Crime Branch.
