BSNL death: Family wants CBI probe
GHAZIABAD: The family of the BSNL union leader Sukhvinder Pal,
who died under mysterious circumstances at the Raj Nagar District
Centre on October 22, has demanded a CBI probe into the matter. Family
members and other union leaders from across the country staged a protest
in Ghaziabad on Thursday and shot off a letter to UP chief minister
Akhilesh Yadav, the PMO and the NHRC demanding a CBI probe into the
matter and transfer of the case to Delhi.
"We have no faith in Uttar Pradesh Police. We have not received any satisfactory response from them. My father's murder was the result of a strong nexus of the top brass and contractors of BSNL," alleged the victim's son, Rohan. "We have lost hope of getting justice in Uttar Pradesh, so we have written letters to the PMO, NHRC and Uttar Pradesh CM demanding transfer of the case to Delhi and a full-fledged investigation by the CBI," he added.
The police have preserved the viscera of the deceased. Cops have even questioned other BSNL employees and colleagues of the deceased to establish the case. The station officer of Kavi Nagar police station, Sudhir Tyagi, said there were two injury marks on the deceased's body — one on the head and the second below his eyes. "The exact cause of death could not be established so we have preserved the viscera which will be sent for further examination," Tyagi said.
BSNL union leaders also gave the police a memorandum citing that the deceased's death was result of exposing scams and nexus between officials and contractors in the department. "Pal had exposed various scams in the department. Fearing legal action after exposure of the scams, department officials and other people involved in the scams eliminated him," said Ashok Singh, a BSNL union member.
