CBI Court Allows Physical Presence of Suspended Punjab Police DIG Bhullar in Bribery Trial

The CBI Special Court in Chandigarh has ruled that the suspended Deputy Inspector General of Punjab Police, Bhullar, and Krishanu Sharda can be physically present during the ongoing bribery trial. The decision follows a request from the parties involved, citing the need for transparency and the right to a fair trial. The court emphasized that the presence of the accused will not interfere with the proceedings and will be monitored closely. The case, which alleges that Bhullar accepted bribes in exchange for police clearance, remains under active investigation by the CBI. The court’s order is expected to be a significant development in the case, potentially affecting the strategy of both prosecution and defense.
