Chandigarh, August 21, 2020: Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) Deepika Singh accepted the application of former cops, Inspector Jagir Singh and Assistant Sub Inspector Kuldeep Singh, to become approvers and pardoned in the Multani case.
The three co-accused former UT cops, then inspector Jagir Singh, sub inspector Harsahai Sharma and Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) Kuldeep, Singh had filed an application in the court seeking permission to turn approvers and be pardoned in the ongoing probe against them in the Multani case.
However, the court of CJM on August 7 turned down their plea for the want to approach from the proper channel — that is the investigating agency the Special Investigating Team (SIT) — which can make a request to the court tendering for pardon for the accused.
