Mazhithia has alleged a collusion between police, jail authorities and political leaders in Punjab, demanding a Central Bureau of Investigation probe.
Mazhithia, a prominent activist, has publicly accused the Punjab police and jail administration of colluding with political leaders to suppress dissent. The allegations, first reported by Amar Ujala in Amritsar, claim that officials have been complicit in targeting political opponents.
The activist argues that such a partnership undermines the rule of law and erodes public trust in state institutions. He has called for a thorough investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to uncover any wrongdoing.
So far, the Punjab police and the state government have not issued a formal response to Mazhithia’s claims. The lack of a statement has raised concerns among civil society groups about transparency and accountability.
If the CBI takes up the case, it could lead to a comprehensive review of police conduct and the relationship between law‑enforcement agencies and political entities in Punjab.
