SupremeCourt to hear today pleas seeking registration of FIRs against #DelhiPolice and #CAPF personnel over the alleged use of excessive force against students who protested against #NEETPaperLeak and examination irregularities

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J V Mohana

The petitioners specifically seek probe into the incidents of July 20, when the #SansadChalo march to Parliament was allegedly met with use of tear gas and batons

The pleas seek an independent investigation into the incidents, preservation of CCTV footage, body-camera recordings and other electronic evidence, besides compensation for protesters found to have suffered injuries

Earlier, CJI Kant declined listing of a letter petition on the issue (mentioned by Adv Narendra Mishra). Subsequently, the CJI clarified that the listing was declined as there was no properly filed petition before the court at the time.
