Imphal 2009

Sanjit Meitei바카라s killing near the state assembly in Imphal led to ­protests across Manipur. A head ­constable who shot him confessed that the suspected People바카라s Liberation Army member was unarmed. The CBI is ­re-investigating the case even as the Supreme Court chastised the NHRC for not being 바카라pro-active바카라 in a case looking at 1,528 extra-judicial killings in Manipur.

Sarkeguda 2012

Over seven years after the ­extrajudicial killing of 17 villagers, ­including six children, in south Chhattisgarh, the V.K. Agarwal Commission stated it could not find any evidence of villagers firing at ­security forces. 바카라There was no ­satisfactory ­evidence that the ­confrontation ­occurred with ­members of a Naxal ­outfit,바카라 reads the ­commission바카라s report.

Chittoor 2015

On April 7, 2015, 20 alleged Red Sanders smugglers were killed in an 바카라encounter바카라 with ­police and forest personnel in the Seshachalam ­forests of Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh. The police were attacked, but ­suffered no injuries due to 바카라superior training바카라, claimed a DIG. The high court directed the state to file an FIR against the policemen involved. The matter is still in court.

Satbarva 2015

In November 2018, the CBI began an inquiry into the killing of 12 alleged Maoists, four of whom were children, in Satbarva, Jharkhand, in the ­intervening night of June 8-9, 2015. The CBI took up the case after a ­victim바카라s father moved the high court. The FIR had claimed Maoists fired ­바카라indiscriminately바카라, but only 19 ­cartridges were recovered, while the police exhausted 200 rounds.

Bhopal 2016

On October 31, 2016, eight SIMI ­undertrials who had allegedly ­escaped from Bhopal Central Jail were shot about 15 km from the prison. Videos of the incident ­surfaced on social media and the NHRC expressed concern. The ­victims바카라 families alleged they had been killed in cold blood. In 2018, a judicial probe said the killings were 바카라quite inevitable...quite reasonable바카라.

Greater Noida 2017

In October 2017, the NHRC issued a notice to the UP government and ­police after 바카라wanted ­criminal바카라 Sumit Gurjar바카라s family claimed he was killed in a staged encounter. Eyewitnesses said Sumit, a 22-year-old farmer, was ­abducted by five men in a white SUV on September 30. Villagers demanded justice at a panchayat organised a year later. Many BJP leaders have ­assured the family of a CBI inquiry.

Dantewada 2019

In the intervening night of September 13-14, the Chhattisgarh police killed two alleged Maoists near Kutrem village in Dantewada. Security forces were said to be combing the area in preparation for a bypoll.

Hyderabad 2019

On December 11, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a petition for an ­independent probe into the ­extrajudicial killing of four men ­accused of raping and murdering a 26-year-old veterinarian in Hyderabad. The encounter took place after the men snatched their weapons in the wee hours of December 6, the police claimed. The woman바카라s body was found on November 28, a day after she died.
