Kolkata:
The trial in the Rizwanur Rehman death case begins in Kolkata today with the court initiating the process of framing of charges against industrialist Ashok Todi and six others accused in the case.
Thirty-year-old graphic artist Rizwanur was found dead near railway tracks in Dumdum area of Kolkata on September 21, 2007, just a month after his marriage to Ashok Todi's daughter Priyanka on August 18, 2007.
The other accused include two members of Ashok Todi's family, a friend of the Rehman family and three police officers.
Earlier this month, the Supreme Court had set aside a Calcutta High Court division bench order which directed the CBI to conduct a fresh probe into the case treating it as a case of murder. The CBI was asked to proceed with the case as suicide.
