Rudresh murder case : High Court permits NIA to continue probe

Bengaluru: The High Court of Karnataka on Friday allowed the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to continue the probe into the murder of Rudresh, a member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).

A Division Bench comprising Chief Justice Subhro Kamal Mukherjee and Justice P.S. Dinesh Kumar passed the interim order on an appeal by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) questioning the legality of the March 21 single judge verdict setting aside the MHA's December 7, 2016 order of handing over the probe to the NIA from the Commercial Street Police Station in Bengaluru.
