Harichandan's remarks came in response to Dipali's belated demand for a CBI probe expressing hurt over questioning by the BJP on the silence of her family in the killing of Naba Das.

"Simply expressing concerns to the media does not suffice. They (family of Das) have to make a formal request to the government in writing for CBI probe if they are not happy with the investigation conducted by the Crime Branch of the Police or the way the case is being handled," Harichandan told mediapersons here.
