Family of Haryana ASI refuses cremation, demands FIR before post-mortem

Chandigarh, Oct 15 (UNI) Tension prevailed in Ladhaut village of Haryana's Rohtak today after the family of Assistant police Sub-Inspector (ASI) Sandeep Lathar refused to conduct the post-mortem and perform his last rites, demanding a case be registered first.
The ASI allegedly committed suicide yesterday, accusing senior IPS officer Y. Poonam Kumar of corruption in a purported video statement and a four-page note left behind. UNI has neither verified the authenticity of the video, nor is it in a position to do so.
Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, along with Cabinet ministers Krishan Lal Panwar and Mahipal Dhanda, met the grieving family and expressed condolences. INLD leader Sunaina Chautala also visited the family and demanded a fair judicial probe into the incident.
