The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Friday filed supplementary chargesheet against gangster Chhota Rajan in connection with the murder case of journalist Jyotirmoy Dey in the MCOCA Court.

Chhota Rajan was also present through the video conferencing while filing of the supplementary chargesheet.

Earlier, the investigative agency had on July 25 sought more time to file the supplementary chargesheet saying that some procedural permission were needed as prosecution sanction against Rajan.

Dey, a veteran crime reporter, was shot dead near his residence at Hiranandani Gardens in Powai on June 11, 2011, by motorcycle-borne shooters allegedly at Rajan's command.

Four persons on two bikes fired at Dey, who was also riding a bike. After the attack, he was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was declared brought dead.

 

Rajan was allegedly upset with two articles written by Dey and, therefore, ordered his killing.
