Referring to the arrest of a Kashmiri boy in the death case of a student from Jadavpur University, West Bengal Assembly LoP Suvendu Adhikari demanded a probe by Central Bureau of Investigation and the National Investigation Agency as it involves multiple states.
"A boy from Kashmir was arrested today. Who issued a residential certificate to him? How did he get the OBC A certificate?... The case has now become multi-state so it's a fit case for CBI and NIA," said Suvendu Adhikari.
Earlier on Monday, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) issued a notice to the Chief Secretary, Government of West Bengal calling for a report on the Jadavpur University student death case within four weeks.
