Relying on reports of two forensic experts, he also claimed that the post mortem was not conducted properly, as it missed out a few injury marks on the body.<\/p>\n<p>The court also came down heavily on CBI for putting forth excuse of lack of manpower and logistical support for carrying out further investigation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a country having over 1 billion population, the CBI has the audacity to tell the court that they have only 11 officers,&#8221; the division bench said.<\/p>\n<p>The comment came after Rebecca Gonsalves, who represented the central agency submitted that during past two months the high court has transferred three cases to the CBI and the central agency had some reservations as regards transferring Jiah Khan case to it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;See the concern shown by the US (United States) administration towards death of their citizen (Jiah was a US national) and see the attitude of the CBI,&#8221; the judges said referring to the fact that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) officers took out time to look into the papers of Jiah Khan case and even expressed willingness to carry out further investigation, and an officer attached to the embassy regularly attended the matter in high court.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You cannot shun your responsibility,&#8221; the judges said, adding, &#8220;An agency like the CBI cannot come with an excuse that it does not have adequate manpower and machinery to investigate cases. The judges expressed utter displeasure over the stand taken by the central agency saying, &#8220;Ultimately, it is the duty of the State to protect lives of citizens and to maintain law and order,&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Assistant public prosecutor Poornima Kantharia, on the other hand, maintained that all possible angles, including murder committed either by the present accused or somebody else were investigated by local police. She submitted that even the doubts and suspicions raised by Rabbiya Khan were also looked into.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every minute detail has been covered,&#8221; Kantharia claimed. &#8220;There were no signs of violence and no bleeding injuries on the body,&#8221; she added to point out that the local police did not find any sign of possible murder.<\/p>\n<p>The 25-year-old actress was found hanging to the ceiling fan in her flat at Juhu on June 3, 2013.<\/p>\n<p>The Juhu police have booked her boyfriend actor Sooraj Pancholi, on charge of abetting the suicide and now a chargesheet has also been filed against him.<br \/>\n(Source: PTI)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bombay high court on Thursday transferred the actress Jiah Khan death case for further investigations to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and directed the central agency to find out if it was a suicidal death or homicidal one.
