extra judicial confession is a very weak type of evidence,it should be taken into consideration when during trial other witness corroborates the same story and the person who is making the confession must have to make without any external undue influence force or fraud.when the complainant himself making the contradictory statement,and if the same is reflected during trial, its very much unsafe to place any reliance over that extra-judicial confession.

How C.B.I. can entertain any matter for investigation without direction of C.M./P.M./President of India/Governer of any state/High Court/Supreme Court.Otherwise also an extra-judicial confession is a very weak evidence.
