Bismarque death: Family to inspect probe papers

The High Court of Bombay at Goa on Tuesday directed the Crime Branch to allow the legal counsel of late Bismarque Dias' family inspect the investigation papers of his suspicious death.


While only Adv Ryan Menezes, the advocate representing the family has been allowed access to the investigation papers, the HC has also issued directions to conclude the inspection within a week's time.

The High Court has now posted the hearing for next week in connection with the petition filed by Dias family seeking registration of the matter as murder, under Section 302 OF Indian Penal Code.

After quizzing over 60 witnesses while probing each angle and possibility suggested by various persons and groups, crime branch team had categorically ruled out suicidal and homicidal death.

Earlier in March this year, the Crime Branch had submitted a 42- page inquiry report to the Sub-Divisional Magistrate, Tiswadi of its probe into the death of Bismarque Dias with the concluding remark that it was an ‘accidental’ death.
