Delhi Riots: Police Actions Dent Justice System Credibility
The Delhi riots happened a few years ago, and many people were arrested.
When the cases went to court, judges found some problems.
They noticed that the police might have made up evidence or changed what witnesses said to make it seem like the accused people were guilty.
This made the judges question the fairness of the investigations and whether everyone's rights were protected.
People are now worried about the police and if they are doing their jobs properly and upholding the law.
Verdicts have been pronounced in 116 of 695 riot cases filed.
97 acquittals have been issued in the Delhi riots cases.
Courts pointed out procedural lapses in acquittal cases.
Evidence and witness statements were fabricated by Delhi Police.
Actions of the police have dented the credibility of the justice system.
