JNU students welcome Delhi HC order on Najeeb, but still wary

Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) students today welcomed the Delhi High Court order transferring the Najeeb Ahmad case from the Delhi police to the CBI, but wondered if the government’s investigation agency would be given a free hand to probe the disappearance of the JNU student. "It is a good move, but we were demanding an independent enquiry monitored by the court. Even the CBI functions under the ambit of the central government and can be influenced as we have seen in several cases," JNU students’ union (JNUSU) president Mohit Kumar Pandey said.
