Supreme Court Raps High Court, Tamil Nadu Government Over Top Cop's Arrest | Read
The Supreme Court has expressed shock over a Madras High Court order to arrest a senior Tamil Nadu police officer - ADGP HM Jayaram, suspended by the state amid a probe into an alleged kidnapping case involving a family dispute - while it was hearing a plea for anticipatory bail.
The court also had sharp questions for the state over the top cop's suspension; a bench of Justice Ujjal Bhuyan and Justice Manmohan asked the Tamil Nadu government if the suspension was necessary given Mr Jayaram has, so far, cooperated with the investigation.
