The Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed a petition filed by Gujarat government seeking a review of its judgement directing a CBI probe into the killing of gangster Soharabuddin Sheikh in a fake encounter in 2005.
The apex court also declined to expunge the remarks against senior IPS officer Geeta Johri,who had headed the team investigating the case in which Kauser Bi,wife of Sheikh was also eliminated by the Gujarat police.
A Bench comprising Justices Aftab Alam and Cyriac Joseph did not find merits in the review petition filed by the state government as also by Johri.
Gujarat government had sought a review of the January 12 verdict directing a CBI probe on the ground that the state agencies were holding proper investigation.
Johri had contended that the adverse remarks were passed against her without giving her an opportunity to be heard.
