Delhi High Court Criticizes Police for Arrest Over Flooded Road Incident

The Delhi High Court reprimanded the police for arresting Manuj Kathuria, who drove through a flooded road, causing water to rush into a coaching center's basement. The court highlighted police oversight in not investigating Municipal Corporation officials and transferred the probe to the CBI for a transparent investigation.

The Delhi High Court sharply criticized the police for arresting a man, Manuj Kathuria, after he drove through a waterlogged road that led to rainwater entering the basement of a coaching center.

Kathuria, who was granted bail, was allegedly 'over-enthusiastically' implicated. The court questioned the police's lack of investigative efforts towards the Municipal Corporation of Delhi and pointed out what it perceived as procedural lapses.

In response to the incident, the court has transferred the investigation to the CBI, emphasizing that the public must be assured of a fair probe.
