Supreme Court Upholds Panel to Probe Police Actions in July CJP ProtestsPreviousNext

The Supreme Court has refused to reconstitute the five-member High-Powered Enquiry Committee (HPEC) investigating alleged police excesses during the July 20 Cockroach Janta Party protests in Delhi. The court dismissed claims of bias against the panel as conjecture and emphasized its role in conducting a fair, transparent inquiry. The HPEC is tasked with probing pellet gun use, violence against female protesters, police injuries, and property damage, while ensuring protection and confidentiality for vulnerable witnesses.
