GP Singh’s police remand extended

Saturday, 15 January 2022 | Staff Reporter | RAIPUR

A special court in Raipur on Friday extended the police remand of suspended IPS and ADGP rank officer Gurjinder Pal Singh for four days, a government lawyer said.

The 1994 batch IPS officer is in police remand since January 12 after a case of disproportionate assets was slapped against him by the Economic Offences Wing/Anti-Corruption Bureau (EOW/ACB) of the Chhattisgarh Police.

Special Judge (Prevention of Corruption Act) Leena Agrawal extended the police custody till January 18 for further interrogation, Deputy Director (Prosecution) Mithlesh Verma told The Pioneer.

Singh was taken into custody on Tuesday in Gurugram and brought to Raipur on charges of amassing assets disproportionate to his known source of income and other charges.

From July 1 to 3 last year, around 15 locations related to the officer were raided.

After his suspension on July 5, he was also booked for sedition and extortion.
