The Supreme Court on Friday brought the investigation into the death of the son of a Chennai-based human right lawyer 11 years ago directly under the watchful eye of the Madras High Court.
A Bench led by Justice D.Y. Chandrachud directed the CB-CID (Metro) team of the Tamil Nadu Police, which is investigating the case, to file status reports once in every four months before the High Court, starting from August 1, 2022.
The investigation would moreover be monitored by the DIG (Local Range), who would also be a signatory in the status reports to be filed in the High Court.
