Delhi Police has filed a petition with the Supreme Court requesting the withdrawal of 13 First Information Reports, including 10 that accuse individuals of attempted murder. The move follows a review of the cases.
Delhi Police has recently filed a petition with the Supreme Court seeking the withdrawal of 13 First Information Reports (FIRs). Among these, ten FIRs allege attempted murder under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.
The petition argues that the FIRs were registered without sufficient evidence and that procedural lapses have compromised the integrity of the investigations. It requests that all 13 FIRs be struck off from the police records.
The Supreme Court will review the petition and decide whether the FIRs should be withdrawn. The cases were initially registered by Delhi Police and have been under investigation for several months.
This development comes amid ongoing scrutiny of police procedures and the handling of criminal complaints in the capital.
