MUMBAI: Eight years after the death of a Mumbai youth, Agnelo Valdaris, 24, following his arrest by Wadala police over an alleged theft, a special trial court has set October 21 as the date "for framing of murder charge" against all eight accused police officers, reports Swati Deshpande. The accused have been asked to be present on that day.
Wadala GRP personnel had arrested Valdaris and three others including a minor boy on April 15, 2014 on charges of stealing gold jewellery. They were allegedly stripped, tortured and sexually abused. Valdaris died in custody while the others were released on bail.
