Unfortunately, even after this report, this will not be grounds in itself for #ShivKumar to get bail. And the likelihood of action against those responsible is also minimal.
The criminal 'justice' system is not fit for purpose, and needs urgent reform.
Just look at this report from GMC Chandigarh assessing the condition of #ShivKumar .
Broken toenails. Possible fractures. PTSD. If you don't think this is physical and mental torture, I don't know what to say to you.
The normalisation of police brutality has to stop.
What happens when an arrested person alleges custodial torture?
While there is a right to request a medical examination, Indian law lays down few other hard & fast rules beyond that & is incredibly weak on consequences.
