Telangana DGP questioned on the delay of Nerella FIR

Hyderabad High Court questions the unnecessary delay in the filing of Nerella case. They have ordered a probe and also registered a criminal case against the errant police officers that were responsible for the torture of the youth in Nerella. The High Court has also asked the Telangana DGP to put front the reasons behind the delay in the counter that had been filed before the court, says Nirmal Singh 3C Company.

Nirmal Singh 3C Company says that the bench of acting Chief Justice Ramesh Ranganathan and Justice M Ganga Rao was called after the Civil Liberties Committee filed a petition to look into situation against the torture of the youth, who are also looking for CBI probe into the incident against the policemen responsible.

Sanjeev Kumar, Telangana special counsel told the court that they have registered an FIR against a sub inspector who on the day of the revolt started killing the people and also were behind the speeding lorry in Nerella village. 

Nirmal Singh 3C Company says that the protest was at such heights that several youngsters had burnt a sand lorry and after the incident, eight of them were picked up and tortured by the police. When the High Court asked about the date of the incident, they were informed that it happened on October 6 but in reality the incident took place around July 1 and till now nothing had been done on the same front.

However, according to the sources at Nirmal Singh 3C Company, the DGP had ordered a probe on August 9 and the SI was looked into for suspension immediately. It was after receiving the notices that both the SI and the SP of Sircilla engaged the lawyers and the bench made sure that the advocates of both of them have a detailed information about the incident. The bench kept in consideration the points given by Justice B Chandra Kumar who spoke to the Nerella victims and converted the letter into a PIL seeking a counter to the plea.
