More than three months after RTI activist Shehla Masood was shot dead in a broad daylight here, investigators are still groping in the dark.

Shehla's murder, outside her residence in the posh Koh-e-Fiza locality of Bhopal on August 16, had sparked strong reactions among RTI activists.

After the local police's probe into the killing failed to yield any result, the Centre ordered a CBI probe into the incident following a request made in this regard by the Madhya Pradesh Government.

In the last two months, the CBI's Bhopal unit had concentrated on a number of aspects in the murder and checked details of Shehla's laptop and call details to find the culprits.

In this period, the unit also recorded statements of many politicians, police officials, builders and other influential people to find clues on the murder.

Delhi CBI take over

However, the investigations were subsequently taken over by the Crime unit of Delhi CBI as the local unit was unable to come up with anything concrete.

During its probe, the special crime unit focused on a number of history-sheeters in Jahangirabad, Koh-e-Fiza, Mangalwara, Nishatpura and other localities.

The CBI was looking for a possible link between politicians and the history-sheeters. However, before they could be interrogated, most of them went underground.

The apex investigation agency has so far asked nine persons to go to Delhi where they will be questioned again in connection with Shehla's murder.

The Bhopal unit also opened a Facebook account in order to gather information about the murder and 50 persons are said to have responded to its appeal. But since the information was not of much use, the account has been withdrawn. 

More than three months have passed since the RTI activist was shot in broad daylight
