Haryana DGP Shatrujeet Singh Kapur and Rohtak police chief Narendra Bijarnia have been named in an FIR for abetment to suicide and SC/ST Act violations following IPS officer Y Puran Kumar’s death. His wife claims years of caste-based harassment by senior officers drove him to take his life.
The Supreme Court rebuked IPS officer Ashok Mishra for filing a contradictory affidavit that appeared to favor murder convicts. The bench accepted his apology but warned him to uphold “loyalty to the Constitution over subservience to superiors.”
