Delhi Court Refuses Probe into NDMC Officials Assault Claims
A court in Delhi agreed with an earlier decision and will not investigate claims that some government workers were violent.
A contractor said he was hurt by officials, but the court said there wasn't enough proof and that he might be trying to get money.
The judge decided the case was about a money dispute, not a crime.
They believed the claims were not supported by evidence and could be an attempt to pressure the government into paying the contractor.
Delhi court dismissed an appeal against a magistrate's order that refused to investigate assault allegations against NDMC officials.
The court stated that cases involving allegations against public servants require heightened scrutiny.
The original complaint alleged assault, threats, and wrongful detention by NDMC officials.
The magistrate's initial dismissal was based on the complaint being unsubstantiated and potentially motivated.
The court found that the complainant's grievances stemmed from civil disputes with NDMC.
