reinvestigated
Looked into anew
Reinvestigated means investigated again.
Cases are reinvestigated when new evidence emerges, when the original inquiry was flawed, or when authorities want fresh eyes on an old problem: The cold case was reinvestigated after DNA technology improved.
Police reinvestigated the claims following public pressure.
