NEW DELHI: The CBI has refused to probe the mysterious death of IAS officer DK Ravi objecting to conditions set by Karnataka government.

The 35-year-old IAS officer, who had taken on the sand mafia known in Kolar district of Karnataka, was found hanging from a ceiling fan in his room at his official flat in Bengaluru on March 17.

The scope of CBI investigation in DK Ravi case cannot be decided by the state govt, CBI has reportedly said, adding, probe may be restricted to family only or may go up to govt or mafia.

The CBI has also objected to the three-month timeline set by the Karnataka government for the probe.

The investigative agency has told the government that it can't accept request for a time-bound probe.

Meanwhile, reacting to CBI's move, Karnataka chief minister Siddaramaiah said the state government will reissue the notification.

​CBI sources said once fresh notification is received, the agency will examine the matter whether to takeover probe or not in the controversial death.

The death of Ravi, who took on land mafia and realtors, spiralled into a major controversy after Chief Minister Siddaramaiah initially refused to seek a CBI probe in the case. The case was being probed by Karnataka CID.

Opposition parties and activists then mounted pressure on the state government demanding that the investigation in the case be handed over to CBI.

The decision to transfer the probe to CBI come after Congress president Sonia Gandhi wrote in March to Ravi's wife promising a fair and transparent probe into the incident.

This came after Ravi's mother reportedly wrote an open letter to her seeking an impartial probe.
According to social activist and whistleblower Ganesh S Koundiny DK Ravi was planning raids on some big developers to unearth commercial tax evasion.

The state government had maintained that Ravi's death prima facie seemed to be a case of suicide, but the opposition parties and the family of the IAS officer have refused to accept the theory.

Ravi's family had raised doubts over the police claim that he committed suicide, saying that he was under "political pressure".
