Delhi Police on Wednesday rejected claims circulating on social media that a woman protester sustained a gunshot injury during the July 20 protest in central Delhi, saying the allegation is not supported by her medico-legal certificate (MLC).
In a statement, the police said the MLC prepared at Dr Ram Manohar Lohia (RML) Hospital on July 20 recorded a lacerated wound in front of the right tragus, with the nature of the injury classified as blunt. Doctors also described the injury as simple and found no evidence of a gunshot wound.
