The Supreme Court Wednesday directed Rajasthan Police to complete within two months its ongoing investigation in the case of death of a third year student of National Law University, Jodhpur, in August 2017. A bench headed by Justice R F Nariman said this while hearing through video-conferencing a plea filed by the victim's mother who has sought transfer of the case from Rajasthan Police to the CBI.
"Having heard Manish Singhvi, senior counsel appearing on behalf of the state, we are of the view that the investigation which is ongoing, pursuant to the high court's order dated February 24, 2020, must be completed within a period of two months and final report be filed before this court," said the bench, also comprising Justices Navin Sinha and B R Gavai.
