Kothkai (Himachal Pradesh) [India], October 16(ANI): A local court on Monday extended the judicial custody of eight policemen till October 28, including the Inspector General of police (IG), arrested in connection with the custodial death of accused of Kotkhai minor rape and murder case.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in August arrested eight people, including IG Zahoor Zaidi and Deputy Superintendant of Police (DSP) Manoj Joshi, in relation to the custodial death of an accused of raping and killing a minor girl in Kotkhai region of Shimla district.

Two days later, police recovered her body from Halaila forests of Kotkhai. The post-mortem report had revealed injury marks on the dead girl's body.
