Suicide case of Haryana IPS officer gets serious
The investigation into the alleged suicide of Haryana IPS officer Y Puran Kumar just got more serious.
After his wife, Amneet P Kumar, called for stricter action, police confirmed the addition of a key section of the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act to the FIR by October 12, 2025.
Amneet has accused top officers—including Haryana's DGP—of being involved in her husband's death.
SIT is gathering evidence in the case
A Special Investigation Team is digging into the case and gathering evidence. One senior police official named in the allegations has already been transferred.
Officials met Kumar's family on October 11 to get their consent for an autopsy—a crucial step in figuring out what really happened.
Meanwhile, a 'mahapanchayat' (community meeting) is set for October 12 to address the family's concerns and claims of discrimination faced by Kumar.
