| dbo:abstract |
Raghava Krishnaswami Raghavan is a former Indian police chief and diplomat. He was the director of the Central Bureau of Investigation from 4 January 1999 to 30 April 2001. He investigated high profile cases such as the Priyadarshini Mattoo murder case, the 2000 South Africa cricket match fixing, and the 2002 Gujarat riots. Raghavan was assisted by Ashok Malhotra, a former CBI Deputy Inspector General, and SIT lawyer R. S. Jamuwar, both "outsiders to Gujarat" in the Gujarat riots case. In April 2014, the Supreme Court praised the investigations done by the Special Investigation Team (SIT) headed by Raghavan and declined to re-constitute another. He was appointed as India's High Commissioner to the Republic of Cyprus on 30 August 2017. (en) |
