Tripura Congress MLA Sudip Roy Barman has demanded a High Court‑monitored investigation into the death of the state’s Director General of Police.
Tripura Congress Member of Legislative Assembly Sudip Roy Barman has called for a High Court‑monitored probe into the death of the state’s Director General of Police (DGP). The MLA expressed concerns over the circumstances surrounding the DGP’s demise and urged the judiciary to oversee the investigation to ensure transparency and impartiality.
The request comes after reports of the DGP’s sudden death, which has raised questions among political and law‑enforcement circles. Barman’s appeal is aimed at preventing any potential interference and ensuring that the inquiry is conducted without bias.
The Tripura High Court has not yet responded to the MLA’s plea, and the state police have stated that an internal investigation is underway. Barman’s demand reflects growing calls for judicial oversight in cases involving high‑ranking police officials.
The outcome of this request could set a precedent for how future investigations of senior police officers are handled in the state, potentially increasing the role of the judiciary in such matters.
