The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court on Wednesday directed the CBI to probe the murders of Dr Vinod Arya and Dr B P Singh, both former chief medical officers of family welfare in Lucknow, and file a report in three months.
Passing the order on a PIL filed by an NGO ‘We, the people’, a division bench of Justices Pradeep Kant and Ritu Raj Awasthi also directed the CBI to investigate two cases of financial irregularities in the office of the Lucknow CMO, which had surfaced during the investigation of Singh’s murder in April.
Arya was shot dead by motorcycle riders while he was taking a morning walk near his Vikas Nagar residence on October 27 last year. His successor Singh was killed in an identical manner near his Gomti Nagar residence on April 2. Investigation showed that at least one of the weapons used in both crimes was common.
