The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Friday filed its second chargesheet in the murder case of Kunda Deputy Superintendent of Police Zia-ul-Haque, but did not name former Uttar Pradesh minister Raghuraj Pratap Singh alias Raja Bhaiya in it.
On Thursday, the CBI had sought permission from a Lucknow court to carry out a lie detection test on Raja Bhaiya in connection with the killing of Zia-ul-Haq three months back.
The federal investigating agency moved an application before the court of special CBI judge Mirza Zeenat seeking permission to conduct polygraph test on the former food and civil supplies minister with his consent.
The agency said Raja Bhaiya had given his consent for the test.
The court fixed June 11 as the next date of hearing on the application. It said the former minister can lodge his objection, if any, on the application on the next date of hearing.
The agency has already grilled Raja Bhaiya on May 15 and 16 in connection with the murder case. Haq was shot dead on March 2 in Balipur village in Kunda area of Pratapgarh district where he had gone to probe murder of village head Nanhe Yadav.
Haq's wife Parveen Azad had accused Raja Bhaiya of conspiracy after which he had to resign from the Cabinet on March 4.
