UP Govt also said that even otherwise, no case is made out for CBI inquiry - State STF is investigating, one chargesheet is filed, cognizance taken against 15 accused, supplementary chargesheet about to be filed, etcAdditional Solicitor General KM Nataraj questioned how a CBI investigation could be ordered when the High Court was dealing with a bail matter.
