CBI is all set to register a case in connection with the murder of Geetanjali Garg, the wife of Gurgaon Chief Judicial Magistrate Ravneet Garg, who was found dead on July 17 in high-security Police Lines area.

CBI sources said the notification from the Department of Personnel and Training is expected soon, after which the agency might file the case and carry out searches.

The family of 30-year old Geetanjali had met Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda here yesterday and demanded a CBI inquiry in the murder in which Gurgaon police have booked Ravneet.

After meeting Hooda, Geetanjali's family had also met the state's Director General of Police, S N Vashisth.
 

Gitanjali was found dead on July 17 in high security Police Lines area in Gurgaon.

The police had slapped murder charge against the CJM. Her family had accused her in-laws of harassing her for dowry.

The family alleged the harassment started from the birth of the couple's first daughter and things worsened after their second girl child was born.

Geetanjali's brother Pradeep Aggarwal and father Om Prakash, who live in Panchkula, had also demanded a narco test on the CJM, saying the mystery behind the woman's death needs to be brought out.

Geetanjali got married to Garg in 2007 and they have two daughters aged around four and three years.

Her brother has alleged that it is a case of murder since as per the post mortem report, there are three gun-shot injuries and one head injury on her body. After the incident, a Special Investigation Team was formed to probe the death.
