Mandsaur violence: Cops prepare to close cases against 1,500 farmers
INDORE: Police have prepared closure reports in 64 cases of the 2017 Mandsaur violence, saying there is no evidence against the accused. This could lead to charges being dropped against 1,500 farmers. The Madhya Pradesh Congress on Wednesday announced through Twitter that the process of withdrawing cases, as promised by CM Kamal Nath, has begun.
“In 2018 assembly polls, we had promised to withdraw false cases registered against farmers.
During investigation, 64 such cases have come to the fore and closure reports have been submitted in court,” PCC media coordinator Narendra Saluja told TOI on Wednesday. Six people were killed during the 10-day-long farmers’ agitation.
