NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday asked the police as to why it has not filed a charge sheet in the case concerning the death of a 23-year-old man who was forced to sing the national anthem during the 2020 northeast Delhi riots and asked it to conduct its investigation without influence as per the law.
Justice Chandra Dhari Singh, who was hearing a petition by the deceased's mother seeking a speedy and proper investigation, said that the case was to be taken seriously and asked the investigating agency to "take into account" the "suggestions" by the petitioner in her plea.
