Probe death of man forced to sing anthem, HC asks CBI

The Delhi High Court has transferred the investigation of a 23-year-old man’s death during communal riots to the CBI, terming it a ‘hate crime’. The court criticized the police for alleged religious bigotry and lack of accountability. With perpetrators still unidentified and concerns over police negligence, the court’s decision aims to ensure a fair and credible investigation process. The case underscores the importance of upholding human rights and addressing issues of mob vigilantism, even when involving law enforcement officials.
