DK Ravi called fellow batchmate just once says CBI

IAS officer D.K. Ravi, who was found dead at his home in Bangalore on 16 March, had apparently telephoned a woman IAS batchmate only once on the day of his alleged suicide as against claims that he had called her 44 times, Central Bureau of Investigation has found in its preliminary report. The matter snow-balled into a major controversy with Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah initially refusing to seek a CBI probe into the case. However, following a public outcry, the case was handed over to the central investigative agency.
