SC dismisses pleas to probe alleged mysterious death of CBI judge B H Loya

NEW DELHI: SC dismisses pleas to probe alleged mysterious death of CBI judge B H Loya, who was hearing Sohrabuddin Sheikh fake encounter case.
SC says attempts were made to scandalise judiciary by levelling serious allegations against judicial officers and judges of Bombay HC.
There is no reason to doubt statements of four judges on circumstances leading to the death of Loya said SC.
Documents placed on record and their scrutiny establishes that Loya’s death was due to natural cause said SC.
It becomes clear that with these petitions real attempt and frontal attack was made on independence of judiciary said SC.
SC says frivolous and motivated litigation has been filed to settle political rivalry.(agencies)
