Disturbingly, this morning, police personnel discovered Mr. Singh’s lifeless body hanging from the ceiling of his cell. Authorities immediately alerted higher officials and the incident has triggered an uproar in the community and among human rights activists.
The circumstances surrounding Mr. Singh’s death have raised suspicions and demands for a thorough and transparent investigation.
