West Bengal Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari has demanded a CBI inquiry into the incident suspecting it to be a case of rape and murder.
"This is a clear case of murder (with the probability of rape). The case should be immediately transferred to the CBI (@CBIHeadquarters). Instead the State Govt has formed a 11 member enquiry committee for this incident. Strangely some of the Committee members are Internees," he posted on X.
