Father Sanjay Kumar challenges suicide conclusion

Panchkula:  A court will pronounce its decision on October 28 on the Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) closure report in the death case of Haryana teacher Manisha, after final arguments concluded in the matter, according to the supplied report.

The proceedings concerned a petition filed by Manisha’s father, Sanjay Kumar, challenging the CBI’s closure report. The agency had submitted the report after investigating her death and concluded that it was a suicide.

Kumar opposed the findings and questioned the investigation, maintaining that his daughter was murdered. He has alleged lapses in the investigations conducted by the police and the CBI and has sought justice in the case.

During the latest hearing, lawyers representing the CBI and the petitioner completed their final arguments on the challenge to the closure report. With both sides having presented their arguments, the court is now scheduled to deliver its decision on October 28.

The court’s decision will determine the next stage of proceedings concerning the disputed closure report.

Kumar has said he will continue pursuing the matter if he does not receive justice. He made it clear that he would approach the High Court if necessary, indicating that the legal challenge could continue beyond the forthcoming decision.

The case concerns the death of Manisha, a teacher from Bhiwani in Haryana. The CBI’s conclusion that she died by suicide has been contested by her father, who maintains that she was murdered.

The supplied report also identifies Harsh Mohan Singh as a lawyer associated with the case. No further details of the arguments presented by either side were provided in the source material.

The court is expected to consider the challenge to the CBI’s closure report before delivering its decision. Until then, the agency’s conclusion remains disputed by the petitioner, and Kumar has reiterated his determination to pursue legal remedies for his daughter.
