The father of Neha Chhikara, the woman who was allegedly being harassed for dowry and committed suicide by jumping off a cruise liner in the Bahamas, today demanded that an independent investigating agency or CBI investigate his daughter's death.
Suresh Chhikara said the family was not satisfied with investigations by the Gurgaon Police and alleged it was working under pressure because Neha's father-in-law S S Dalal, the local Civil Surgeon, was close to state Director General of Police Ranjiv Singh Dalal.
Neha, who married Ankit last year, had sent an e-mail to her brother Anuj mentioning that she had been tortured by her husband, alleged the father.
Gurgaon Police Commissioner S S Deswal said Haryana Police have taken the decision for handing over the case to State Vigilance Bureau.
