The Punjab and Haryana high court on Monday summoned the special investigation team (SIT) head of Chandigarh Police probing alleged assault on Colonel Pushpinder Singh Bath over an alleged parking dispute outside a dhaba in Patiala by Punjab Police personnel on the night of March 13.

The high court bench of justice Rajesh Bhardwaj acted on the plea from Col Bath, who has filed a fresh petition alleging “reticence and reluctance” to impartially investigate the FIR by the SIT and has demanded that probe be withdrawn from it and entrusted to either senior officers of the Chandigarh Police or the Central Bureau of Investigation. During the hearing, the court orally slammed the SIT for the delay in probe. It added that the SIT’s conduct amounted to “setting the wrong example”.
