New Delhi, May 21 (PTI) Backing Rahul Gandhi's allegations about police atrocities on Greater Noida villagers, the NCW today recommended a CBI probe "as soon as possible" into the incidents.
"I request a CBI inquiry as soon as possible so that evidence is not destroyed," acting NCW chairperson Yasmeen Abrar told reporters here.
Abrar said villagers in Bhatta and Parsaul villages told an NCW fact-finding team about the alleged police attrocities on them.
"Women in these villages were sad and reluctant to talk about anything. But finally in Bhatta, they said how they were molested and their men burnt alive. In Parsaul village, they said how their houses were ransacked and looted," said Abrar.
Seeking lodging of an FIR against the culprits by the Uttar Pradesh Government, she said there have been allegations of tampering of evidence by the state administration.
