Ashok Kumar Todi vs Kishwar Jahan & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's directive for the CBI to investigate the murder of Rizwanur Rahman, emphasizing the need for a fresh inquiry into the circumstances surrounding his death under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. The Court noted that the initial investigation by the CID was inadequate and that the complaint filed by the deceased's brother should be treated as an FIR. The ruling reinforces the principle that a thorough investigation is essential in cases of suspicious deaths, particularly where familial pressures are evident.
