Madhya Pradesh govt appoints single-member commission to inquire into Mandsaur police firing incident

Following the police firing incident in Mandsaur, the Madhya Pradesh government on Monday appointed a single-member commission to inquire into the incident in which five persons were killed on June 6.

Retired High Court judge Justice J K Jain would chair this Commission of Inquiry.

“The commission headquarters will be at Indore and it will submit its report in three months,” a state public relations department official said.

The commission will find out, among other things, the circumstances under which the firing incident took place and whether the force used by the police was reasonable under prevailing circumstances or not, and if not, who was responsible for this.
