Centre rejects Mayawati's demand for a CBI Probe into Arushi Murder Case

Breaking News! Barely an hour after UP Chief Minister Mayawati recommended a CBI probe into the Arushi murder case, the centre rejected his demand, saying CBI probe is not needed, as the UP STF is already probing the matter. The rejection came from the Minister of State for Home, Sriprakash Jayaswal. However, Dr. Talwar's family still insist on a CBI probe into the Arushi murder case.

The murder of a teenage girl has now become a bone of contention between the centre and state government. It has indeed taken a political turn. It would be interesting to see how Mayawati reacts to the latest denial from the centre and what steps Manmohan Singh's cabinet is going to take.
