Chandigarh, November 6
Raising a question mark on police functioning, 21-year-old Inderjit Malik, arrested in the case of kidnapping of a ‘princess’, attempted suicide in police custody today. He slit his veins in a lock-up at the Sector-3 police station.
The incident occurred this morning. Inderjit slit the veins of his right hand using a blade. The blade was recovered from his possession. He was rushed to a hospital and administered first-aid. He was later sent to judicial custody.
The police slapped a case of attempt-to-suicide on the youth under Section 309 of the IPC. Senior police officials were scrutinising CCTV footage inside the police station to see the circumstances under which Inderjit took the extreme step.
He was arrested three days back for kidnapping a 16-year-old student of Carmel Convent School, who was a ‘princess’ from an erstwhile principality in Himachal Pradesh.
