In a developing case, the family of IPS officer Y Puran Kumar, who allegedly took his own life, is seeking justice by resisting a post-mortem amid questions surrounding the FIR. Amneet P Kumar, his wife and a senior IAS officer, claims inaccuracies in the FIR, demanding it reflect the true names of the accused.
To address the concerns swiftly, Chandigarh Police constituted a six-member Special Investigation Team, led by IG Pushpendra Kumar, aiming to deliver an unbiased and thorough investigation. The deceased officer named several senior colleagues in a 'final note' accusing them of harassment, prompting widespread public and political attention.
In light of these allegations, Congress MPs and other officials have called for judicial and Supreme Court-monitored inquiries. The incident has seen high-profile politicians and organizations express their condolences and urge that justice be firmly pursued. Meanwhile, the grieving family refuses post-mortem proceedings until their demands for accurate investigations and justice are fulfilled.
