Bengaluru: Murdered journalist Gauri Lankesh’s brother Indrajit Lankesh said yesterday that he would move the Karnataka High Court demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) inquiry into her death. Unidentified persons shot dead Gauri outside her home in Bengaluru on Sept. 5, 2017.
“It has been five months since Gauri’s death,” Indrajit Lankesh told the media after lighting a candle on his sister’s grave in Chamrajpet, Bengaluru. “I fully cooperated with the investigation, but I feel the Special Investigation Team (SIT), under pressure from the State, is carrying out the investigation along only one track. Today I will speak to my lawyers and will approach the High Court.” Jan. 29 would have been Gauri’s 56th birthday.
