No leads yet in missing JNU student's case, CBI tells HC
New Delhi, May 11: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Friday filed a status report in the Delhi High Court, stating that it has not found any evidence to date in the missing Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) student Najeeb Ahmed's case.
The CBI counsel told a bench of Justice S. Muralidhar and Justice I.S. Mehta that while analysing an exhaustive data, which was still in progress, the probe agency had not found any concrete leads with respect to missing student.
The CBI told the court that it was going to send three phones to forensic lab in Hyderabad.
The court directed the lab to examine the phones and give a report to the agency within one month and listed the matter for July 12 for further hearing.
The court has been hearing a habeas corpus plea filed by Fatima Nafees, Ahmed's mother, that her son be produced by the police and the Delhi government before the court.
Ahmed, 27, an MSc First Year student, went missing on October 15, 2016 after a fight allegedly with the members of Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad. But the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh-affiliated student body has denied any involvement.

Hezbollah fires over 180 rockets, other projectiles into Israel, wounding at least 7
Beirut, Nov 24: Hezbollah fired at least 185 rockets and other projectiles into Israel on Sunday, wounding seven people in the group's heaviest barrage in several days, in response to deadly Israeli strikes in Beirut while negotiators pressed on with cease-fire efforts to halt the all-out war.
Meanwhile, an Israeli strike on a Lebanese army centre killed one soldier and wounded 18 others on the southwestern coastal road between Tyre and Naqoura, Lebanon's military said. Israel's military expressed regret and said the strike occurred in an area of combat against Hezbollah, adding that its operations are directed solely against the Hezbollah group. The strike was under review.
Israeli strikes have killed over 40 Lebanese troops since the start of the war between Israel and Hezbollah, even as Lebanon's military has largely kept to the sidelines.
Lebanon's caretaker prime minister, Najib Mikati, condemned the latest strike as an assault on US-led cease-fire efforts, calling it a “direct, bloody message rejecting all efforts and ongoing contacts” to end the war.
