The Additional District and Sessions Court here that looks into POCSO cases has come down heavily on the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) while rejecting the latter’s charge sheet in the Walayar minor sisters’ death case.
Describing the CBI chargesheet as a ‘carbon copy’ of the police investigation, the court had said it was ‘old wine in new bottle’. The court ordered a re-investigation by the CBI. It was on August 10 that the court here rejected the CBI chargesheet, and directed the agency to re-investigate the case. The court found that the CBI had done a slipshod investigation in spite of the case having garnered much attention.
