Chief Justice of Hyderabad High Court, Justice Bala Sahab Bhonsle ordered the petitioners to file a fresh petition for conducting postmortem of the under trial prisoners killed in Alair encounter by the police. These orders were issued after reviewing the postmortem report submitted by Special Investigation Team. It was found that the postmortem report has certain defects.
In addition to postmortem report, SIT submitted an affidavit in which the court was informed that investigations of Alair encounter would be conducted from all aspects. If evidence is found that the under trial prisoners were killed illegally, a separate case would be filed.
It may be noted that Viqar Ahmed and four other under trial prisoners were killed in an encounter by the police when they were being shifted from Warangal Jail to Hyderabad for presenting them in Nampally Criminal Court.
