Jharkhand HC Orders FIR Registration in Gangster Aman Sao's Encounter Death
Imagine a court is like a judge who makes sure things are fair.
A lady told the court that the police killed her son, Aman Sao, and she thinks they pretended it was a fight when it wasn't.
She had already tried to tell the police what happened, but they didn't write down her complaint as an official report called an FIR.
So, the big court told the police, 'You need to write down this complaint properly and make it an official report.'
Now, everyone will have to look into Aman Sao's death more closely.
The court will talk about it again later.
The Jharkhand High Court has ordered the state government to register an FIR regarding the death of gangster Aman Sao.
Aman Sao's mother, Kiran Devi, filed a petition seeking a CBI probe and FIR registration.
She claims her son was killed by police on March 11 in Palamu while being transported from Raipur.
Devi alleged that her son's death was portrayed as an encounter, despite her earlier online complaint not leading to an FIR.
The High Court has scheduled the next hearing for November 28.
