Bhubaneswar: The Special CBI Court here today allowed the CBI to take the three accused in the Bahanaga triple train collision of June 2 on a further remand of four days.

The three accused the then Senior Section Engineer (Signal), Balasore Arun Kumar Mohanta; then Senior Section Engineer (Signal), Soro Mohammad Amir Khan; and then Technician, Balasore Pappu Kumar were produced before the Special CBI Court here on completion of their five-day remand.

Reportedly, the CBI on Monday had summoned two more Indian Railways officials for questioning in connection with the triple train tragedy.

The CBI team interrogated them at the Chandaka police station on the outskirts of the city.

Earlier on July 7, the CBI had arrested Mohanta, Khan and Kumar under sections 304 and 201 of the IPC and Section 153 of Railways Act, 1989 in an ongoing investigation of the case pertaining to the train mishap near Bahanaga Bazar Railway Station, in Balasore district on June 2 this year.

The triple train collision involved the 12864 Bengaluru-Howrah Superfast Express, 12841 Shalimar-Chennai Coromandel Express which entered the up-loop line near the Bahanaga Bazar railway station where a goods train was already stationed.

The collision led to the derailment and knocked off the last few coaches of the Bengaluru-Howrah Superfast Express on another track.

As many as 288 people and more than 1,000 were injured in the accident, one of the deadliest in the history of Indian Railways.

The investigation into the accident was initially handed over to the Commissioner of Rail Safety (CRS) and then to the CBI. AM Chowdhary, Commissioner of Railway Safety, South Eastern Circle, was given charge of the inquiry.

The CRS recently submitted its report to the Railway Board. The report reportedly pointed out to lapses at multiple levels in the S&T (Signal & Telecommunication) Department and held it responsible for the accident.

The total death toll in the tragedy so far stands at 293.
