Ahmedabad:
A special Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) court
here Wednesday quashed a magistrate's order allowing the probe
agency to conduct voice test on two accused policemen in the 2005
Sohrabuddin Sheikh staged shootout case.
Special Court Judge G.K. Upadhayay set aside the order that
allowed the CBI to conduct voice test on former deputy
commissioner of police (crime branch) Abhay Chudasama and another
policeman N.V. Chauhan.
Magistrate A.Y. Dave had granted the CBI permission to take voice
samples of Chudasama, Chauhan.
Chudasama's advocate Rohit Verma said the court allowed their
revision application.
He cited a Gujarat High Court order on their application and
argued that the voice test was not necessary at this stage of the
investigation.
The magistrate had also allowed the CBI to collect voice sample of
N.K. Amin, another police official accused in the staged shoot out
case who wishes to turn approver.
Amin had recorded his conversation with Chauhan which revealed the
entire plot of the staged shootout. The sting tapes were presented
as evidence before the trial court.
Sheikh was gunned down Nov 26, 2005, and his wife, missing without
a trace since then, is believed to have died under mysterious
circumstances a few days later.
