Swamy demands CBI probe into Sadiq death

New Delhi, March 18: Janata Party President Subramanian Swamy today demanded a CBI inquiry into the death of Sadiq Batcha, a close aide of former Telecom Minister A Raja.

Swamy said before any further evidence is “destroyed”, the Central Government should immediately announce a CBI inquiry into the “untimely death” of Batcha.

“I also demand that the Central Government voluntarily request the Supreme Court to monitor the CBI investigation of this untimely death in view of the fact that many of the potential accused to be in the chargesheets to be filed in the future will be people holding influence in the Central Government,” he said in a statement here.
