June 05, 2012  16:05

The family of Ruchika Girhotra, who committed suicide after being molested by former Haryana Director General of Police SPS Rathore, has said it will move the High Court against the Central Bureau of Investigation's closure reports dropping torture charges against the cop. Anand Prakash, who is the father of Ruchika's friend said her father had given up the fight after pressure from the accused.

 

The reports filed by the investigating agency say there's no evidence to prove that Ruchika' brother Ashu Girhotra was tortured while in police custody or that the signatures of her father, S C Girhotra, had been forged on the victim's post-mortem report.

 

The closure reports, filed by the agency in 2010 in these two cases, were accepted by the CBI court in Panchkula, Haryana, on Saturday. Appearing before the Panchkula court, S C Girhotra and his son Ashu raised no objection to the CBI move.
