Justice Delayed? SIT Seeks to Question Officer in Custodial Death Case
In a significant development, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) has moved the Supreme Court to seek permission to interrogate a suspended Circle Inspector in connection with the alleged custodial death of Perupogu Kranthi Kumar.
