After the dharna by the family of the youth, DSP Hansi Dharambir Singh informed that the police have booked three cops under murder charges under Section 302 of the IPC and also imposed sections of SC/ST Act and started investigation.

Initially police termed it a case of accidental death stating that the youth died after hitting an electricity pole.

The CCTV footage, however, showed the PCR chasing and hitting the youth from behind.

The family members came to know about the incident when the CCTV footage of the incident went viral on the social media.

They started a dharna demanding registration of murder case against the cops and demanded their arrest.

The youth was working in a shop in Hansi town. There was no word from the police so far about the reason of the PCR chasing him which led to the incident.
