Overview
- The court declined to summon former Gurgaon DCP Balbir Singh and officers Anil Kumar Sagwan, Amit Kumar and Rajbeer Beniwal under Section 319 CrPC for lack of prima facie evidence.
- Judge Prashant C Kale ruled that witness statements did not establish the accused officers’ agreement to conspire under IPC Section 120B.
- The prosecution examined 43 witnesses and disclosed the roles of eight existing accused before officially closing its evidence.
- Defence counsel argued the late-stage bid to add the four officers was a tactic to delay proceedings and lacked any fresh material.
- The trial will next focus on testimony from defence witnesses before hearing final arguments.
