The directions were passed by the High Court on a petition filed by Allah Singh, an old man battling for justice for nearly 23 years. The High Court observed that the process server was in league with the accused.

The body of Inderjeet Singh was found hanging at his rented house in Sector 34 D on July 1, 1985. Allah Singh, Inderjeet’s father had lodged a complaint against Hardev Singh and Harpreet Singh, owners of the house where his son was staying. Singh accused the duo of involvment in his son’s murder, and refused to believe that his youngest son had committed suicide.

Allah Singh had moved the High Court demanding action against the orders of the Special CBI judge, Jagdeep Jain, who had dismissed his application seeking directions to summon two more accused persons in the case.

Singh had requested the court to summon Khuswant Singh, son of Hardev Singh and Rajinder Kaur, wife of Hardev Singh.

He also asked the court to summon Rajinder Kaur as an accused person in the case. He said, “She had influenced a prosecution witness to make a false statement before the police.”
