Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a writ petition seeking a transfer of investigation into the homicide of a law student to the Central Bureau of Investigation due to dissatisfaction with the state police's handling of the case. The court noted the delays and inadequacies in the initial investigation, including the late registration of the FIR and lack of proper evidence collection. The court ultimately granted the petitioner's request, emphasizing the need for a thorough and impartial investigation.
