The family of SFI leader Sudipto Gupta today said that they did not expect justice from West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and reiterated the demand for a CBI inquiry into his death after meeting Governor M K Narayanan.

"We want a CBI inquiry into Sudipto's death because a CBI inquiry can only bring out the truth," the SFI leader's sister Sumita told newsmen after meeting the Governor at the Raj Bhavan with her father Pronob Gupta and Leader of the Opposition Suryakanta Mishra.

Sumita said the Governor heard them, but did not make any comment. Asked whether the family would appeal to the chief minister, Sumita said, "We don't expect anything from her.

"We had asked for justice and instead of giving justice she had termed my brother's death a petty matter. So we have no expectations from her. That is why we came to meet the governor," she said.
