Former Punjab IPS officer and ex-IG Amar Singh Chahal is in critical condition after allegedly shooting himself at his Patiala residence. Police say he was under severe financial stress after being duped of Rs 8.10 crore in an online cyber fraud.
The Orissa High Court criticized the CRPF for dismissing a constable who attempted suicide, highlighting the immense pressure faced by armed forces. The court emphasized the need for mental health support and ordered the constable’s reinstatement to non-firearm-related tasks, considering his medical clearance from a mental health institute. The decision was made citing the Mental Healthcare Act.
