In a significant development, the Punjab-Haryana High Court, under Justice G. R., has ruled to overturn the suspension of Paramraj Singh Umranangal, a key figure in the Kotakpura and Behbal Kalan shooting case. Umranangal was suspended in 2019 following the tragic incidents.
The High Court’s decision, delivered on Friday, directs the Punjab government to reinstate Umranangal within 15 days. The court emphasized that detailed orders regarding the case are yet to be issued.
The Kotakpura Behbal Clan shooting incident led to Umranangal’s suspension, and the recent court ruling has now paved the way for his return to duty. The judge canceled the suspension order, citing grounds for reinstatement.
It’s important to note that Umranangal faced charges registered under FIR in connection with the shooting case, resulting in his suspension. The High Court’s intervention has now brought about a change in this status, urging the Punjab government to take prompt action.
While the full details of the court’s decision are awaited, this ruling marks a significant turn in Umranangal’s legal battle. The reinstatement order raises questions and discussions regarding the implications of the decision on the ongoing investigations and the justice system. The development is expected to have repercussions in the region, and stakeholders are keenly awaiting the complete judgment for further insights.
