CHANDIGARH: The Punjab and Haryana High Court on Thursday dismissed a petition filed by murdered gangster Jaipal Singh Bhullar’s dad seeking instructions to the state of Punjab to run another autopsy of his child’s body at PGIMER at Chandigarh or even AIIMS, Delhi.
The court dismissed a different plea for maintaining Bhullar’s body in the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER).
Bhullar and yet another gangster Jaspreet Singh, included in murdering two policemen lately in Ludhiana, were gunned down with a Kolkata police group in a shootout at town on June 9 after getting”pin-pointed” data in their Punjab counterparts.
Bhullar’s family has not yet ran his final rites.
Bhullar’s dad Bhupinder Singh, at his own request filed by his adviser Simranjit Singh, had sought directions to the state of Punjab to run another post-mortem of his kid’s body at the PGIMER, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Delhi, or even any independent clinical institute to determine the character of harms.
Bhupinder Singh, a retired Punjab police inspector, who has declared that his son had been tortured before being calmed.
After the petition came up for hearing on Thursday,” Justice Manjari Nehru Kaul ignored itsaying the issue isn’t under its authority as the experience occurred in Kolkata, based on Simranjit Singh.
“Still another plea for maintaining the body in the PGIMER is also ignored by the court,” the counselor said.
He added they would approach the Supreme Court after having a replica of this large court order.
Earlier on Monday, the Ferozepur deputy commissioner had refused the petition of Bhullar’s household to get another post-mortem.
