Sonepat, September 1
Pulled up by a court last month, the Delhi Police have resumed serving notices on farmers, asking them to join the probe into the Republic Day violence. The Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM) called it an act of spreading fear among the farmers.The notices have been issued under Section 160 of the CrPC.
The legal panel of the SKM has asked the farmers not to appear before the Delhi Police. A Delhi court had pulled up the police while hearing the anticipatory bail plea of gangster-turned-activist Lakha Sidhana. “The Delhi Police, which filed 44 FIRs against farmers, began serving notices in January-end. Of these FIRs, 24 carry the names of farmers or farm leaders,” said Prem Singh Bhangu, convener, SKM’s legal panel. Some farmers had been asked to join the investigation on September 3, he added. — TNS
