CBI should file investigation progress report: CJM

Kochi, May 14 (UNI) A local court today directed the CBI to file an interim investigation progress report of the sister Abhaya murder case on May 28.

CJM P D Sharangadharan gave direction to the investigating agency to file the report in a sealed cover when a petition by Abhaya's father came up for hearing seeking progress of investigation into the case.

The case had been reopened following media reports that the chemical tests of vaginal swab and smear conducted on the body of the 21-year-old nun had been tampered with.

The nun's body was found in the well at the Pius Tenth Convent, Kottayam on March 27, 1992.
