Shutrujit Kapoor sent on leave in IPS Y Puran case, OP Singh gets charge of DGP


The Haryana government has sent state Director General of Police (DGP) Shatrujit Kapoor on leave amid the opposition’s attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party government over the alleged suicide of former Indian Police Service officer Y Puran Kumar and demands from Kumar’s family for action against the accused officers. After this, the charge of DGP of Haryana was handed over to Om Prakash Singh. OP Singh has got the additional charge of Haryana DGP.

On the other hand, notices have also been sent to Puran’s wife and Indian Administrative Service officer Amneet P Kumar’s wife. Amneet P Kumar has written in his complaint to the police that he has handed over the laptop to the police. But according to Chandigarh Police officials, the laptop has not been handed over to the police yet, hence notice has been given to the family to handover the laptop. According to Chandigarh Police, the family in their complaint has talked about handing over the laptop but it has not been given yet.

IPS Y Puran suicide case: Haryana DGP sent on leave before Rahul Gandhi’s arrival

Kumar, a 2001 batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, had allegedly committed suicide by shooting himself at his residence in Sector-11, Chandigarh on October 7. He had left an eight-page ‘final note’, in which eight senior IPS officers, including Haryana Director General of Police Shatrujit Kapoor and former Rohtak Superintendent of Police (SP) Narendra Bijarania, have been accused of ‘caste discrimination, targeted mental harassment, public humiliation and torture’. Bijarania was transferred on Saturday.

Kumar’s post-mortem and last rites have not been done yet, because his family has refused to give consent for it until their demands are met. Haryana government and Chandigarh officials are trying to pacify Kumar’s wife.
