Earlier, an SIT of Delhi Police was set up to trace the missing student on instructions of Home Minister Rajnath Singh.
While the case was being investigated by the SIT, teams were sent to Darbhanga in Bihar and Nepal after they got leads hinting that Najeeb might be there, but they failed to find him.
Thereafter, the case was transferred to the police’s Crime Branch for a “fresh look” into it.
The police has increased the reward for information about the student from the initial amount of Rs 50,000 to Rs five lakh, but no productive leads have yet been found.
In her plea, 45-year-old Fatima has alleged that her son was beaten up by members of ABVP “which is affiliated to the RSS and therefore, closely connected with the BJP which is the party in power at the Centre and since the Delhi Police comes under the control of the Central Government, it is not likely that any progress will be made in the investigation”.
She has sought criminal prosecution against those persons who were involved in the alleged assault of her son on the basis of the records of the investigation carried out so far.
