The Bombay High Court has accepted the State CID's closure report in a 2007 case alleging a conspiracy to kill builder Rashmikant Shah, reports the Times of India. The court quashed a magistrate's order that had rejected the closure report, noting that the investigation found no material against the accused. The case stemmed from a Rs 500 crore redevelopment dispute at Kalachowky. The CID probe raised questions about the prosecution narrative and led to the suspension of seven police officers, including a former additional commissioner. The CID concluded that the case was false.
