CBI Probes HPPCL Engineer’s Death: Pressure, Harassment Alleged
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is deeply involved in investigating the death of Vimal Negi, a Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (HPPCL) engineer. A three-member team is meticulously examining evidence and witness statements.
The probe follows allegations of intense pressure and harassment leading up to Negi’s demise. The team is focusing on communication records and digital devices seized as part of the investigation.
The High Court transferred the case to the CBI following a petition filed by Negi’s wife. A First Information Report (FIR) has been registered in the matter.
The CBI investigation holds significant implications for workplace safety and accountability within public sector undertakings. The outcome will closely be watched for its impact on future policies and procedures to prevent similar tragedies.
