Petition filed in SC seeking investigation, action against policemen involved in Hyderabad encounter

India TV News  

A day after the police killed the four accused in the rape and murder case of Telegana veterinarian doctor in an encounter, a petition has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking registration of FIR, investigation and action against police personnel who were involved in the encounter. Petition filed by advocate ML Sharma also sought action against Jaya Bachchan and Delhi Commission for Women chief Swati Maliwal 'for supporting extra judicial killings'. While Congress leader Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury noted that a magisterial inquiry is already on and his party will wait for its outcome, his party colleague and lawyer Abhishek Singhvi virtually endorsed the police action, saying the mood of the country sometimes takes "precedence over human rights logic". However, several rights activists said the police cannot act like a lynch mob under any circumstance, asserting the 'encounter' is an attempt by authorities to distract people from the government's failures to safeguard women's rights.
