Suspended Punjab DIG Harcharan Singh Bhullar has moved the Punjab and Haryana High Court seeking bail in a corruption case. Arrested in October 2025 by the CBI for allegedly demanding a bribe through an associate, Bhullar claims false implication and jurisdictional flaws. He argues that the investigation is complete, his custodial interrogation is unnecessary, and his continuous incarceration amounts to punitive detention. The CBI's case stems from a complaint by a scrap dealer, with significant cash and assets reportedly seized from Bhullar's residence.
