#SupremeCourt to hear the Lakhimpur Kheri violence case after it rapped the Uttar Pradesh police for “dragging its feet” in the investigation. @Uppolice #LakhimpurKheriViolence
Noting that the special investigation team (SIT) probing the violence needed to get more witnesses to record their statements, the top court adjourned the proceedings last week to October 26.
