Panaji: BJP on Tuesday reiterated their demand of
a CBI inquiry into the police-drug peddler nexus case after a
girlfriend of a drug dealer alleged involvement of a
politician`s son in it.
"I have always been demanding CBI inquiry into this
entire episode. Now after the revelation by drug peddler`s
girlfriend, it is ample clear that politicians too are
involved in the case," leader of Opposition in Goa Assembly,
Manohar Parrikar told reporters today.
Parrikar said that state police will not be able to
conduct impartial inquiry as their own officers and state
level politicians are allegedly involved in it.
He said that any agency which is from outside the state
should investigate this case to maintain impartiality.
"Compared to state police, CBI can be influenced by very
few politicians," Parrikar, former chief minister, said.
