Mangalore, Jul 20: Although it has been three months since the death of cattle trader Kabeer from Suratkal at the hands of ANF personnel, the CID is yet to make any substantial progress in the investigation. Moreover, there is a general dissatisfaction in some quarters about the government for not responding to the public demand for CBI probe into the matter.
Kabeer was shot down by ANF personnel near Sringeri in Chickmagalur district on April 19 this year. Following the incident, several organizations and political parties had organized protests throughout the district. The butchers had closed their shops for a day.
Protesters had also demanded for CBI investigation and the state magistrate had ordered for CID probe and registered case against ANF personnel Navin Naik.
When Kabeer's family went to Sringeri to bring his mortal remains, Bajarang Dal activists had attacked the family members and vehicles. Several people were injured in the incident. There was also an allegation that the government never understood the seriousness of the case.
Several pro-Hindu organizations had defended the incident and oppposed announcement of compensation to the victim's family. BJP also alleged that Congress was interfering in the affairs of the police department.
"The CID probe has not been done in the correct direction. Prior to the charge sheet, submission report was leaked. This shows the failure of the government. If home minister had kept an eye on the CID report, the investigation would not have been misled," said DYFI Munir Katipalla.
"Truth will be revealed only after the CBI investigation. We do not have any belief in CID investigation. CID police will protect the accused police. To know the truth about the case, CBI probe must be done. We have received Rs 10 lac as a compensation from the government," said Mohammad Ismail, Kabeer's brother.
