New
Delhi: Cobrapost exposes for the first time on camera the complicity of
Delhi Police officers in the anti-Sikh riots of 1984, which resulted in
more than 3,000 deaths in the national capital
New Delhi: In an investigation, Cobrapost exposes officers of Delhi
Police. While most of them candidly admitting to their failure as a
force, some of them confessed that the top brass of the police force
colluded with the government of the day to teach Sikhs “a lesson”.
These police officers are Shoorveer Singh Tyagi, then Station House
Officer (SHO) Kalyanpuri; Rohtas Singh, SHO Delhi Cantonment; S. N.
Bhaskar, SHO Krishna Nagar; O. P. Yadav, SHO Srinivaspuri; and Jaipal
Singh, SHO Mehrauli. S.C. Tandon, then chief of police, conveniently
parried all questions and Gautam Kaul, then Additional Commissioner of
Police, straightaway rejected the idea that he had any first-hand
knowledge of rioting.
