SHIMLA: After the mysterious death of chief engineer-cum-general manager of Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation Limited (HPPCL) Vimal Negi, his family sat on protest with his body on Wednesday at the BCS-New Shimla road, refusing to cremate him till the accused officials are suspended and demanding a CBI probe.
Though common other neighbouring states, it was for the first time such a protest was witnessed in Himachal Pradesh. Body of Negi, who had been missing for last 10 days, was recovered from Bhakra Dam in Bilaspur district on Tuesday.
"I will not move till the officers — managing director (MD) and director are suspended. It is due to their constant humiliation and torture that I lost my husband," said the grieving wife of Negi while demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.
An abatement to suicide case has been registered at the New Shimla police station.
