DISHA vs STATE OF GUJARAT & ORS.

The Supreme Court held that the transfer of investigation to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) under Section 173 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 is warranted due to the complexity of the case involving multiple investors and potential influence from powerful individuals. The Court emphasized the need for a fair and impartial investigation given the suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of the petitioner's husband and the allegations of a large-scale financial fraud under Sections 406, 420, and 120-B of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. The petition for transfer was granted, ensuring that the investigation is conducted without bias or external pressure.
