Delhi High Court Upholds Police Inquiry Supervision Despite Allegations Against OfficerPreviousNext

The Delhi High Court dismissed a petition seeking to remove Additional DCP Sandeep Lamba from supervising a police inquiry after videos showed him slapping a woman during the Chalo Sansad protest. Justice Girish Kathpalia emphasized that allegations alone do not prove bias or guilt without due legal process. The court noted the right to protest does not include damaging sovereign institutions and stressed fairness for the officer, stating any wrongdoing should be addressed through proper channels.
