The Court has also directed the CBI that it should seek the assistance of other central government agencies like the Intelligence Bureau and the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, besides that of the paramilitary forces such as the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard should share any information they have collected regarding Marad incident (six out of 18 owners of the boat are accused in the Marad massacre case).
