Son of Juctice BH Loya, Anuj Loya, addressed a press conference today and said that the family is pained with the chain of events in the past few days.
Anuj cemented his earlier stand saying that his family has no suspicion regarding the death of his father.

Justice Loya, who was hearing the Sohrabuddin Sheikh encounter, had died of cardiac arrest in Nagpur on December 1, 2014, when he had gone to attend the wedding of a colleague’s daughter.

Loya’s son requested media and politicians to stop harassing the family asserting that there is no controversy about his father’s death.
“They (family members) had some suspicion then due to emotional turmoil, but they are clear now. I don’t have any suspicion now,” he said at the press conference.
“We have no allegations against anybody. We are pained by them and request you not to harass or trouble us,” he added.
Lawyer Ameet Naik, who was also present at the press briefing, said that there is no controversy regarding the death of Justice Loya. He urged not to politicize the issue.
“There is no controversy. This is a tragic event. We do not want to be victims of politicisation of the issue. Let it remain the way it is, non – controversial,” said the lawyer.
Just last week, the Supreme Court on Friday had termed the issue of alleged mysterious death of special CBI judge B H Loya in 2014 as a ‘serious matter’.
The apex court had sought a response from Maharashtra government on pleas seeking an independent probe into the matter. A bench of justices Arun Mishra and M M Shantanagoudar asked Maharasthra Government counsel Nishant R Katneshwarkar to file reply by January 15.
