Techie Ajitabh missing case: HC orders CBI probe
Bengaluru, October 22: The Karnataka High Court has ordered CBI probe into the missing case of software engineer Kumar Ajitabh from Whitefield of Bengaluru.
Hearing a petition filed by Ajitabh’s father Ashok Kumar Sinha from Bihar demanding CBI enquiry into his son’s missing case on November 18, 2017, the Single Judge Bench headed by Justice Aravind Kumar ordered CBI probe into the case.
Ajitabh has been working as a software engineer in the British Telecom Company at Bellandur in the city for the last five years. He went outside of his house to show his car to a person who asked his car for buying in OLX and went missing.
Later, a complaint was lodged at Whitefield police station on Ajithab’s missing. When the police have failed to get any indication about Ajitabh, his father moved the High Court seeking CBI probe into the case. The Single Judge Bench had directed the government to constitute a Special Investigation Team to investigate the case. Though the SIT officials tried in all angles, they have failed to establish a breakthrough in the case as they did not get cooperation from the neighbouring states investigating agencies. Following this, the High Court ordered CBI investigation into the case.
The Bench observed that CBI investigation was necessary to take the case to a logical end. During investigation, some reports should be taken from international agencies. Submit all documents collected by the SIT to the CBI which will not face any problem in communication and coordination as it is a national investigation agency. This decision would help the CBI to get cooperation from state agencies in its investigation, the Court observed.
Already, CID team has collected information through call records, Google check-up and Interpol. But still, there is no information about the missing techie.
