Sources from the CBI said that the agency is suspecting evidence was destroyed by school management before Haryana Police reached the spot.
A day after CBI revealed destruction of evidence by Haryana Police, the agency will now interrogate staff and management at Gurgaon's Ryan International School.
Sources from the CBI said that the agency is suspecting evidence was destroyed by the school management before Haryana Police reached the spot.
However, Haryana Police officials too are on the CBI radar for the destruction of evidence.
Few well wishers of the school are also on the CBI radar, as sources revealed that several calls were made to senior police officers and politicians immediately after the incident.
"The manner in which the top officials of Haryana Police are clearly involved to botch up and to frame an innocent person by hatching criminal conspiracy, destructing evidence is absolutely unfortunate," said Pradyuman's family lawyer Sushil Tekriwal.
On Sunday, CBI's investigation of the murder of Ryan International School student Pradyuman Thakur has revealed that the Gurgaon Police destroyed evidence, and that it made a false arrest when it said a bus conductor killed the boy.
Whether the evidence was destroyed on purpose (and a knife deliberately 'planted' on the bus conductor), or whether it was just poor policing, needs to be determined by further investigation, sources added.
Four policemen from the city police's special investigation team are under the scanner. Their call records are being analysed, and a departmental enquiry has been recommended.
