Haryana Head Constable Bailed After Arrest in Crash That Killed Two Schoolboys

Police say forensic tests on the officer’s blood sample will determine alleged intoxication.

  • The accused, identified as head constable Narender Singh posted in Nuh, was chased by villagers, detained, and handed to police after he tried to flee the scene.
