Expressing unhappiness over the pace of probe by the Uttar Pradesh Police in the Lakhimpur Kheri case, the Supreme Court has recommended monitoring of SIT investigations by a retired high court judge. SC bench headed by CJI N V Ramana told 'no' to CBI probe into the incident and said CBI is not the solution to everything. The apex court said it is not confident about the manner in which the evidence is being recorded by the UP SIT. The top court said both incidents - mowing down of protesting farmers by a vehicle and the lynching of the accused - have to be investigated and taken to a logical conclusion.
