According to the reports by India Today, the CBI also pointed at the lapses in the investigation conducted by Uttar Pradesh police.

The mother of the minor accused told the news channel that her son is a minor. The CBI team had visited their house and taken the marksheet.

The four accused in the Hathras alleged gangrape case are now at the Aligarh jail. A CBI team questioned the four accused in the Hathras case for over 8 hours. The agency also met doctors at the Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College and Hospital, where the victim was treated.

Meanwhile, Dr Azeem Malik, who publicly contradicted the UP version of the Hathras gangrape and murder case, has been told his services are no longer required at the hospital.

Dr Azeem Malik was the temporary Chief Medical Officer of Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College Hospital. His statement that the FSL (forensic science laboratory) report – samples for which were taken 11 days after the October 14 assault – held no value directly contradicted Additional Director General (Law and Order), Prashant Kumar’s statement, who had said the FSL report showed that no rape took place.

On September 14, a 19-year-old Dalit girl was gang-raped and beaten up by the four accused while she was working on the fields with her family. She was then left to die with severe injuries on her backbone and tongue.

Two weeks later, she passed away at a hospital in Delhi, triggering massive protests and outrage across the country, accusing the Uttar Pradesh government of lapses in the probe. The case was later handed over to CBI.

The HC also granted bail to Sushant Singh Rajput’s cook Dipesh Sawant and his domestic help Samuel Miranda on a personal bond of Rs50,000 each. On October 6, a special court extended Rhea’s judicial remand till October 20

Rhea’s lawyer Satish Maneshinde said that they are happy about the order. He said that the arrest and custody of Rhea was totally unwarranted and beyond the reach of law and the witch hunt by Central Bureau of Investigation, Enforcement Directorate and Narcotics Control Bureau.

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has earlier strongly opposed the bail pleas filed by Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik, and other co-accused in a drug case. The agency had told the Bombay High Court that a strong message needed to be sent out to the society, especially youngsters, to ensure they did not consume drugs.

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) said the siblings and others arrested were “active members of a drug syndicate” and vowed to go to the roots of the case

Rhea Chakraborty, who was reportedly in a relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput, was arrested by the NCB on September 8, for allegedly procuring drugs for Sushant Singh Rajput.
