BRUTAL MID-NIGHT ATTACK BY DELHI POLICE ON INNOCENT PEOPLE- LAWYER WRITES TO DELHI HIGH COURT CHIEF JUSTICE DEMANDING JUDICIAL INQUIRY

Hon’ble the Chief Justice,

Delhi High Court, New Delhi-110003

Sub: Inhuman, unjust and most undemocratic brutal mid-night attack by Delhi Police on thousands of innocent people – Request to take action against Delhi Police


Respected Sir,


Though I am not a Baba Ramdev's supporter but at the same time, I am shocked to see the inhuman, unjust and most undemocratic brutal mid-night attack by Delhi Police on thousands of innocent people.


All television channels are showing the pictures that Delhi Police in large number entered into Ramlila Ground at about 1.30 am on Sunday 05.06.2011 and started forcibly removing the agitators therefrom in which large number of people sustained injuries. Even women were not spared. The police used stones, sticks and tear-gas shells. Several people (number not known) were detained by the police and their whereabouts are not known. Several people were pushed into police vehicles and it is not known where these people were taken.


Delhi Police Chief says that the permission was only to the extent of 5000 people but the gathering gone on to 40-50000 people which violated the condition of the permission. The points here are: Why the police did not intervene when numbers of people were exceeding 5000? Why the police chose only mid-night to come into action to remove the people?


It is submitted that such a mid-night brutal attack by the Delhi Police on thousands of people who had gathered from different parts of the country at Ramlila Ground is totally illegal, unjust, arbitrary, most undemocratic, repeat of emergency excesses, unconstitutional and violative of human rights.


It is, therefore, requested that the present letter may kindly be treated as PIL and appropriate directions including directions for initiating judicial enquiry by a retired High Court Judge may kindly be issued.


With regards,


Ashok Agarwal, Advocate
