Srinagar:
The Jammu and Kashmir government has ordered a judicial probe into
the death Friday in police custody of a man called in for
questioning along with two others in connection with allegations
of corruption against a local police officer, an official said.
A sitting high court judge will conduct the probe, the official
added.
Three people - Muhammad Yusuf Shah, a land dealer belonging to
south Kashmir's Bijbehara town; Abdul Salam, a police wireless
operator and Muhammad Yusuf, block president of the ruling
National Conference from north Kashmir Ganderbal district - were
called for questioning by the Crime Branch after complaints about
the corrupt practices of Shabir Ahmad, a police officer in the
chief minister's security detail.
"Muhammad Yusuf Shah complained of some complication and he was
immediately taken to the hospital where he died," police here
said.
Shah's relatives staged a protest in the Press Colony here
demanding arrest of those responsible for his death. They alleged
he had been killed in police custody.
As for Shabir Ahmad, he was transferred to south Kashmir's Kulgam
district immediately after the complaint against him was received,
police said.
