Supreme Court Condemns Police Bias, Orders Probe in Akola Riot Case

Supreme Court Condemns Police Bias, Orders Probe in Akola Riot Case

The Supreme Court is upset with the police in Maharashtra.

They think the police were biased and didn't do a good job investigating a murder during a riot in Akola.

A young witness said he saw someone killed because they thought the victim was Muslim.

The police didn't investigate properly.

The Supreme Court is making a special team of police officers from both Hindu and Muslim backgrounds to look into it.

They also said the police everywhere must be fair to everyone and not be biased.

The court is also looking into the Bombay High Court's earlier decisions on the matter.

They want justice for everyone, especially those who are often treated unfairly.
