Issuing a 48-hour ultimatum to the Haryana Government and Chandigarh Police, a mahapanchayat today demanded the immediate arrest and suspension of all officers, including DGP Shatrujeet Kapur, who were named by IPS officer Y Puran Kumar in his suicide note.

Calling for a fair and high-level judicial inquiry into the incident, the mahapanchayat by Shaheed Y Puran Kumar (IPS) Nyay Sangharsh Morcha declared that until the accused were suspended and arrested, there was no question of allowing post-mortem or the last rites.

A 31-member committee, consisting of representatives chosen by the late officer’s family, issued the 48-hour ultimatum to the government, warning that if no action was taken within the stipulated period, the community would take to the streets.
