Moga/Ferozepur, March 15
A 28-year-old man allegedly died in police custody in Mudki town of Ferozepur. Shiv Ram Singh was booked under Sections 21, 61 and 85 of the NDPS Act on June 6, 2020, and since then he had been eluding arrest. He was nabbed on March 13.
Probe revealed that he had committed suicide by hanging himself from the door of the lock-up, but his family alleged torture.
Meanwhile, the district administration ordered a judicial inquiry into the incident. A Class-I judicial magistrate recorded the statements of the local police officers and the kin of the deceased. He also inspected the alleged suicide spot. — TNS
