Bench asks Tamil Nadu not to take it as a ‘prestige issue’
The Supreme Court on Monday did not interfere in a Madras High Court order transferring the investigation into the death by suicide of a 17-year-old student at Thanjavur to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) amidst controversy sparked by a private video on social media in which the girl allegedly said she was asked to convert to Christianity.
"The investigation in terms of the impugned order [of Madras HC] will continue," a Bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Bela M. Trivedi directed.
