No coercive action against ex-CP in Atrocities Act case till October 21: Maharashtra govt

MUMBAI: The Maharashtra government on Friday told the Bombay high court it will not take any “coercive action” against former Mumbai police commissioner Param Bir Singh till October 21 in a case registered against him under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.

In a separate case, the state gave a similar assurance to the court about not taking action against Rashmi Shukla, another IPS officer. The government was extending its assurance given on May 24, 2021 about not taking any coercive action (such as arrest) against Singh, said its lawyer Y P Yagnik.

He made the statement after a bench of Justices S S Shinde and N J Jamadar adjourned till October 20 the hearing on a petition filed by Singh seeking the quashing of an FIR lodged against him by Thane police.
