Cops Delayed Reaching UP Shootout Location Finds Probe, Officials Removed
Over two weeks after 10 people, including three women, were shot dead over a land dispute in Uttar Pradesh's Sonbhadra, the state government today removed top administrative and police officials from their posts. An inquiry report on the incident said local police deliberately delayed going to the village despite several urgent pleas from villagers over the shooting. Local police had also sided with the accused, the inquiry report submitted by the additional chief secretary (revenue), said.
