On Wednesday, a UP Police constable approached the High Court of Delhi, challenging framing of charges against him for the alleged murder of the Unnao rape survivor’s father & framing him in a case of possession of illegal arms.
Amir Khan, UP Police Constable, claimed in his plea that the trial court has “wrongly” clubbed the two cases as one was sessions triable & other was magisterial triable case.
On Aug 13, Expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Sengar & nine others had been charged by the trial Court for murder, criminal intimidation, wrongful restraint, criminal conspiracy & false evidence & under the Arms Act.
The charges framed against them also included voluntarily causing hurt, voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means, public servant disobeying law, with intent to cause injury to any person & public servant framing an incorrect document with intent to cause injury.
Bail of three UP police officials had also been cancelled by the Court – then Makhi police station in-charge Ashok Singh Bhadauria, Sub Inspector Kamta Prasad & Amir Khan – accused in the case, & sent them into custody after the charge of murder was framed against them.
