New Delhi: Former Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Kalikho Pul's wife on Friday demanded a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into her husband's suicide to bring out the actual reason.
"We want a central investigation agency, CBI or the National Investigation Agency, to investigate the case," said Dangwimsai Pul, addressing the media on Friday.
She blamed the state government for its nonchalance in conducting a proper investigation into the former chief minister's death, despite an FIR by the family.
The 47-year-old leader was found hanging from a ceiling fan, weeks after being unseated as the Chief Minister by a ruling of the Supreme Court.
She even went to the extent of accusing the state government of threatening the family for demanding a CBI probe.
However, the Supreme Court reinstated Mr Tuki's government on July 13, 2016, following which Mr Pul and his supporters returned to the Congress and supported Pema Khandu as the Chief Minister.
