There was no breakthrough in the stalemate over Kumar's autopsy and cremation, with his family members refusing to budge, seven days after the incident.

In an eight-page final note purportedly left behind by Kumar after he allegedly ended his life, he accused eight senior IPS officers, including Haryana DGP Shatrujeet Kapur and now-transferred Rohtak SP Nar-

endra Bijarniya, of “blatant caste-based discrimination, targeted mental harassment, public humiliation and atrocities”.
