CBI probe into NRG rape case sought

The NRG woman who has accused Criminal Investigation Department
(CID) sleuths of raping her in custody,has moved Gujarat high court demanding the
registration of an FIR and seeking investigation by Central Bureau of Investigation
(CBI).
The woman came to be arrested two months ago in connection with a land scam
after she arrived in the country.Five others were also nabbed along with her in this
multicrore scam.The case was being probed by the economic offences wing of CID,and
therefore she was brought to Ahmedabad after arrest and kept at the office situated in
Meghaninagar.
She was remanded for five days and then sent to judicial custody.After being
released on bail on November 11,the woman filed a complaint against CID officials for
allegedly raping her during custodial interrogation.
In her petition,the victim claimed that nearly 20 days have passed,but the police
have not even registered an FIR.She has sought registration of an FIR against cops
charging them under sections 376 and 120B rape and criminal conspiracy.
Alleging reluctance by Gujarat cops to probe the case,the woman has urged the
HC to direct CBI to investigate the case.
