Former CBI director Ashwani Kumar found dead at home in Shimla

Ashwani Kumar, the former chief of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), was found dead at his home in Shimla on Wednesday. He was 69.

He was the director of the agency from 2008 to 2010, and handled high-profile cases like the Aarushi Talwar murder case.

He retired after 37 years in service. Kumar also served as the governor of Nagaland and Manipur after his retirement.
