CHANDIGARH: The family of 2001-batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer Y. Puran Kumar, who committed suicide in Chandigarh last week, gave consent to conduct the autopsy, the ninth day after the incident. The officer will be cremated at around 4 p.m. at the Chandigarh cremation ground, officials said.
The police said Additional Director General of Police Puran Kumar shot himself with a service pistol and died on the spot. The officer left behind a nine-page “final note” that named 15 serving and former officers, put the state police’s top brass under the lens for casteism and bias.
In a twist to the incident, a Haryana Police assistant sub-inspector was found dead with a gunshot wound, along with a purported suicide note accusing the late Puran Kumar of corruption.
