Delhi Police Probe After Mishandling Murder Case, Family Denied Last Rites

A murder case in Delhi has come under intense scrutiny after the police were accused of mishandling the investigation and denying the victim’s family the opportunity to perform last rites. The deceased, a resident of Delhi, was found dead under suspicious circumstances, and the police response was deemed slow and inadequate by witnesses.

Family members reported that they were not informed about the procedural steps and were denied permission to conduct the customary funeral rites. The denial sparked outrage among the community and prompted calls for a transparent inquiry.

In response, the Delhi Police Commissioner announced an internal probe into the handling of the case. The investigation will review the chain of custody, evidence collection, and communication with the victim’s relatives.

Officials have assured the public that the matter will be investigated thoroughly and that any misconduct will be addressed in accordance with the law.
