CBI Pressurising IPS Officer

In the latest twist in Sohrabbudin fake encounter case, Senior Gujarat Police officer Geeta Johri has accused the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) of pressurising her to implicate some political leaders in connection with the Sohrabuddin Sheikh fake encounter case.

Geeta Johri is the current Police Commissioner of Rajkot and had earlier led the investigation of the Sohrabbudin case on behalf of Gujarat CID. Geetha Johri has filed a curative petition in the Supreme Court saying the central agency is exerting pressure on Gujarat Police officers, including her, to implicate political personalities, including Amit Shah in the case. In curative plea, she says third person picked up along with Sohrabuddin and Kauser Bi was not Tulsi Prajapati but is one Kalimuddin, who she says is a member of banned People’s War Group. Kalimuddin is probably now under the protection of the Andhra Pradesh Police since he is their informer and a key intelligence asset. CBI has claimed that Tulsi Prajapti was also picked up from the same bus. She also sought the removal of Balwinder Singh, CBI’s Special Director, who is supervising the investigation into the case.

Question is, If all powerful CBI is trying to pressurize someone as senior as Police Commissioner of Rajkot to depose in a particular way then what would they do to common people like Patel builders and other police officers trapped in the case? CBI is hell bent on proving something which does not exist and they have got full support from the central government to do it and that is to implicate Amit Shah and in general Narendra Modi government.

Its good that someone like Geeta Johri is fighting back. May the truth win.
