CHENNAI: The Madras High Court on Tuesday directed the Special Investigation Team (SIT) to also probe two additional FIRs registered in connection with the leaking of audio clip of a 10-year-old rape survivor in a case booked by the Anna Nagar police.
The first FIR pertained to the sexual assault itself, which had earlier been taken up by the SIT following a Supreme Court directive. The HC has also instructed the SIT to submit a progress report within four weeks.
The directive was issued by a HC bench comprising Justices R Subramanian and C Kumarappan during the hearing of a suo motu case concerning the sexual assault and the alleged misconduct by Inspector Raji during the initial probe.
