Mumbai, Jan. 31 -- The Maharashtra Crime Investigation Department (CID) has begun its probe into the plane crash in Baramati that killed Deputy chief minister Ajit Pawar and four others, an official said on Friday. The state police had ordered the CID probe following the January 28 crash, a senior official said. "The Pune Rural police have registered a case of accidental death under section 194 Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita. The case has been transferred to the CID," he said. Pawar (66), who had taken off from Mumbai, and four other persons on board a Learjet 45 plane died after it crashed barely 200 metres from the edge of the tabletop airstrip at Baramati, his hometown in Pune district, on Wednesday. The official said that a team of CID personnel had started their work and would collect related documents from the Pune Rural police. The team will also visit the accident site near the Baramati airstrip, he said. The probe is to rule out any sabotage with the plane before Pawar began his journey from Mumbai to Baramati, he said. The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau, which functions under the Civil Aviation Ministry, has also initiated a formal probe into the crash. htc...
