Hry IPS officer’s wife booked for abetment of ASI’s suicide
Hindustan Times Mumbai
|October 16, 2025
Police in Haryana’s Rohtak district on Wednesday booked deceased IPS officer Y Puran Kumar's wife and senior IAS officer Amneet P Kumar, her brother and Punjab legislator Amit Rattan, and two others, for abetment of suicide of assistant sub-inspector (ASI) Sandeep Lathar, who was found dead with a gunshot wound along with a purported final note that accused the late IPS officer of corruption, officers said.
The development came on a day Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini met the family members of 41-year-old Lathar and assured them of “appropriate action”.
“An FIR has been registered against senior IAS officer Amneet P Kumar, her brother and Amit Rattan as well as exemptee ASI Sushil Kumar and another policeman Sunil, posted at IG office in Rohtak, on charges of abetment to suicide and criminal conspiracy under relevant sections of BNS,” a senior police officer from Rohtak said, requesting anonymity.
Earlier, chief minister Saini’s OSD Virender Singh Badhkhalsa informed the deceased ASI's family members during the meeting about the FIR being registered against four persons under sections 108 (abetment to suicide) and 61 (criminal of conspiracy) of BNS, and urged them to give consent for the autopsy.
