Am In India, Says Ex-Top Cop Param Bir Singh, Catches A Break In Court | Read

Former Mumbai police chief Param Bir Singh, missing since October, was today granted protection from arrest and asked by the Supreme Court to join investigations into extortion charges against him. His lawyer had said he is "not absconding" and is in India. "The officer shall join investigation. But will not be arrested," the Supreme Court. The court had last week refused to grant the former top cop any such protection, asking him sternly to first reveal where he is.
