New Delhi, Nov 22 (TIWN) The Supreme Court on Monday granted protection from arrest to former Mumbai Police Commissioner Param Bir Singh in cases against him in Maharashtra, and directed him to join the investigation.
Singh “does not want to abscond and does not want to run anywhere”, but faces a threat to his life, his lawyer told the Supreme Court. “The moment he touches the land in Maharashtra, he faces a threat from the Mumbai Police,” the lawyer added. Singh faces at least four cases of extortion. In the last hearing Thursday, the apex court had questioned where he was. “Where are you? Are you in this country or outside? In some state? Where are you? We will come to the remaining. First, we need to know where you are,” the court had said.
