Hyderabad,Sept. 10: The AP High Court on Thursday refused to gave a direction to the Centre to appoint a special investigation team to probe the helicopter crash which took the lives of the then chief minister, Y.S. Raja-sekhar Reddy, and four others.
A division bench comprising the Chief Justice Anil R. Dave and Justice C.V. Nagarjuna Reddy, while disposing a petition filed by Mr R. Chandra Sekhar Reddy, Supreme Court advocate, said there was no need to appoint a team to probe the incident.
Mr A. Rajasekhar Reddy, assistant-solicitor-general, told the court that apart from the CBI, the DGCA and civil aviation authorities are also probing the incident. He said the state government had appointed a two-member expert team to conduct an inquiry into the mishap. While agreeing with the contentions of the Centre, the judges observed, “We do not see any other reason as to why we should order another probe.”
The bench made it clear that the petitioners can supply whatever material they have in this regard to the investigating agencies and get their doubts clarified.
