Mahant's death: 'V-mark on Giri’s neck, no external injury'; Yogi seeks CBI probe

The Yogi Adityanath government late Wednesday recommended a probe by Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the death of Akhil Bharatiya Akhada Parishad president Mahant Narendra Giri. This came just hours after the seer’s autopsy report revealed death by asphyxia due to hanging, lending weight to the suicide theory. Also, police formally arrested his disciple Anand Giri and Bade Hanuman temple priest Adya Prasad Tiwari on charges of abetment to suicide and produced them in the chief judicial magistrate’s court, which sent them to 14-day judicial custody.
