HC admits plea seeking CB-CID probe into Dalit girl''s death
PTI | 03:07 PM,Jul 14,2011
Madurai, Jul 14 (PTI) Madras High Court bench here today ordered
notice to city police to file a status report on the investigation
into the mysterious death of a 14-year old Dalit girl in a government
hostel here on July 9 last year. The court passed the order while
admitting a petition by the girl's father seeking a direction to
transfer the probe into the case to the CB-CID police. Justice R.Mala,
who went through the case diary, asked the Police to file the status
report on July 22. Petitioner Soundarapandian submitted that he
strongly suspected his daughter Pandeeswari was "sexually abused and
murdered" by some DMK men. He said the warden of the Adidravidar
Welfare hostel at Chokkikulam had informed him that his daughter died
due to electric shock. But there were injuries on her chest, loin and
nail marks on the face. Her inner garments were also found damaged and
changed in position. There was no symptom of electric shock, the
petitioner submitted. Authorities did not order Revenue Divisional
Officer inquiry, he said adding no action was taken on his complaint
with Tallakulam police. Hostel officials were giving contradictory
versions regarding when and where she suffered the shock. Other
students were not telling the truth and one particular girl knew about
the incident, he claimed. Alleging that the local police did not
conduct a proper inquiry, he sought transfer of the case to the
CB-CID.
