The Supreme Court on Thursday said Brajesh Thakur, the main accused in the Muzaffarpur shelter home rape case, was obstructing the probe and asked why he should not be shifted to a jail outside Bihar.

Perusing the CBI status report, a bench of Justices Madan B. Lokur, S. Abdul Nazeer and Deepak Gupta said it revealed "shocking, horrible and scary" details of how the crime was perpetrated. It sought Thakur's response.
