Ahemdabad: The Gujarat High Court on Monday rejected former Gujarat IPS officer PP Pandey’s plea to quash the FIR registered against him in Ishrat Jahan fake encounter case.
The High Court, while rejecting Pandey’s plea, also declared him an absconder in the 2004 fake encounter case of Ishrat Jahan and three others.
Earlier this month, Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate of the special CBI court HS Khutwad had passed an order proclaiming Additional DGP (Crime) PP Pandey an absconder under section 82 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC).
