Reese Witherspoon's father hospitalised after poolside incident in Nashville: Report
"... prima facie we have found that there was indeed an error in judgment in deciding what was important at that point," NRK Reddy, Special DG on police role in Alwar lynching case, said.
Alwar MP Karan Singh Yadav told ANI: "Police and cow vigilantes are hands in glove in this matter. It was the duty of the police to take him to hospital immediately. Police have played a suspicious role. This is a case of not only mass lynching but also custodial death."
Reports further inform that action is being taken against the three policemen.
At a time when the Alwar police are facing flaks for not timely attending the lynching victim, the kin of the deceased on Monday said they don't doubt the police.
"We do not doubt the police at all. We want justice and severe punishment should be given to those who killed him (Akbar)," Ilyas Khan, brother of Alwar lynching case victim Rakbar told ANI.
