  • However, Singh's father claimed that his son was innocent. "There is no criminal record against my son and he was killed in a fake encounter because police officials want (gallantry) medals," he told reporters soon after the postmortem.

    The top officials of district police, on the other hand, defended the encounter and said the bike used by the youths was stolen from Haryana. The claimed the three boys were asked to stop by G D Bhatt, a Sub-Inspector, at Dalanwala area. When the police searched their bag, a weapon was found in it.

    However, the youths overpowered Bhatt, snatched his revolver and fled. When Bhatt flashed a message over the wireless, the boys were intercepted at another place and there was an encounter in which Singh was killed, they said.

    Hang Guilty in Fast Track CourtBy: Avinash Murkute | 06-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward Everyone is shocked. The guilty should be hanged till death within reasonable time say 2 years. The case should be tried in Fast Track Court on a day 2 day basis. This will serve Good Morning call to everyone who abuse power, sometimes with weapon and sometimes without weapon.
    Fake encounterBy: RJ Khurana | 06-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward The culprits should not get away. If those guilty of fake encounters get away it will sound a death-knell for our democracy. Occasional bonafide errors of judgement in a surcharged atmosphere such as we have today are possible but deliberate brutal killings cannot be condoned at all at any time. Our administration has relegated police reforms to the last priority and it is we people we are sufferings. Will the brutal killing of Ranbir Singh shake up those in deep slumber over a life and death issue like police reforms.
    Police brutalityBy: Sandeep | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward Wonder what the reaction had been if this had happened to an Indian student in Australia?
    Urgent Police reform with political reform neededBy: Jay | 05-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward In India whole system is not trust worthy. It’s simply not possible to blame the police or the youth in this particular incident. Many times youths are involved in many anti-social activities which their family members are aware of (mostly it’s the case). On the other hand police also do harass common people, arrange fake encounter and the largest organized group who rape law and order on a regular basis. In present situation of Indian law and order, political system it’s almost total breakdown of governance. Police reform is urgent need, long overdue. Our political masters need to ensure that there is no, absolute no political interference in day to day activities of Police and our investigative agencies like CBI. So only police reform is not sufficient without supporting political reform. Else we are heading towards total anarchy, which is visible in many parts of the country today.
