CBI set to probe Munde's accident


The Union home ministry has decided to recommend a CBI probe into the fatal accident of rural development minister Gopinath Munde last week. This follows a demand from the Maharashtra unit of the BJP for a central probe into allegations suggesting a possible conspiracy .
Munde was killed in a collision with a Tata Indica car while on his way to Indira Gandhi International Airport on June 3. The driver of the Indica car was arrested and later released on bail.
The indications of a CBI probe came on Tuesday morning after Union minister Nitin Gadkari and Maharashtra BJP unit chief Devendra Fadnavis met home minister Rajnath Singh. According to government sources, the Union home ministry has already finalized the communication to the department of personnel, recommending that the probe into the mishap be handed over to CBI.
