Magisterial inquiry into Prof's death extended

Ujjain, MP, Oct 6 (UNI) The duration of a magisterial inquiry into Madhav College Professor H S Sabharwal's murder has been extended by a month up to November 3.

Prof Sabharwal had died when students attacked him over postponement of student union elections on August 26.

The district administration had ordered a magisterial inquiry by Additional Collector Ravindra Singh and sought a report within 15 days.

Earlier, the inquiry had been extended twice, as adequate people did not turn up for recording statements.

Later, more than a dozen people recorded written and oral statements.

Mr Singh had notified to the Madhav College and other concerned people regarding recording of statements and had written to the Collector for granting extension to complete the inquiry.
