December 21, 2011 17:00

In a major setback to the prosecution, a local court today rejected the Maharashtra CID closure report in mysterious death of seven-year-old Yogita Thakre and directed the agency to reinvestigate the case.

Yogita was found dead on May 19, 2009 in the boot of a car parked in the compound of then Maharashtra BJP president Nitin Gadkari's home. The kin of the deceased, including herparents and sisters, have demanded Narco test to be conducted on Nitin Gadkari, his PA Sudhir Deolgaonkar, driver ManoharPanse and then police inspector of Kotwali police station R M Katole.
