NEW DELHI: A Delhi court has pulled up the police for clubbing a complaint in a Delhi riots case based on “unfounded assumptions” that the incident would have been caused by the same accused persons.The court of additional sessions judge Pulastya Pramachala said that a “half-hearted attempt” was made only to show completion of the investigation.

The court, refusing to club a complaint filed by one Rinku in an FIR in year 2020 registered at Gokalpuri police station, observed, “In fact, I find that in the name of investigating this complaint, a half-hearted attempt has been made only to show the completion of the investigation. This complaint is, therefore, not to be entertained in the present case.”
The Delhi Police’s ASI had filed a second supplementary chargesheet in the FIR on September 25 wherein copy of Rinku’s complaint was filed.

The court directed the concerned SHO to take Rinku’s complaint back and register a separate case on it.

However, the court noted that the investigation was not done properly rather a final report of investigation was filed in haste, without carrying out complete probe.
