One of the most depressing stories to come out of court in recent times.

Man killed by police on ground that he was dacoit. Media also publishes the photo of the deceased as dacoit. Policemen involved are rewarded for the killing. But….(1/n)
The real dacoit found to be very much alive and in jail. The mother of the deceased man moves High Court for CBI probe. Police admit in court that the dacoit is alive but single-judge of HC still declines CBI probe. Hands over case to Police itself to probe fake encounter (2/n).
Mother moves Division Bench in appeal. Meanwhile, Police file closure report in the fake encounter but the investigating officer does not even find time to appear before the trial court after closure report is filed. (3/n)
