New Delhi, Jun 25 (PTI) Pulling up the city police chief for not taking action against his erring officers, the Delhi High Court has issued direction for initiating criminal proceedings against three police personnel for falsely implicating a man in a criminal case.

Justice S N Dhingra passed the order on a plea by Manjeet Singh Chug who alleged that police are trying to protect three officers by not acting against them despite directions given in this regard on behalf of the Lt Governor.

“Registrar General of this court is directed to send a complaint under Section 195 CrPC for initiating criminal proceedings against the concerned police officials for falsely implicating the applicant (M S Chug),” Justice Dhingra said.
