Ruchika Girhotra's family moves court against CBI

August 31, 2012 14:50

The family of Ruchika Girhotra will approach the Punjab and Haryana High Court challenging the Central Bureau of Investigation closure report in the molestation-suicide case. The CBI's closure report pertained to Ruchika's brother, Ashu Girhotra's torture and destruction of evidence in the case.

Teenager Ruchika, who was a budding tennis player, had committed suicide in 1993, three years after allegedly being molested by former Haryana DGP SPS Rathore in August 1990.

69-year-old Rathore is currently out on bail after spending around six months in jail serving a sentence of 18 months in the main case relating to the molestation charge. He has appealed against the sentence in the molestation case.
