CHANDIGARH: The high court on Wednesday told the Punjab government to consider the name of justice (retd) RN Raina as inquiry officer to probe the role of senior officers in 2023 controversy pertaining to interviews of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi by a private channel while in incarceration.
During the hearing on Friday, state's advocate general Gurminder Singh gave a list of names in a sealed cover report out of which the high court bench of justice Anupinder Singh Grewal and justice Lapita Banerji suggested that former Punjab and Haryana high court judge justice Raina be considered for the job.
"He shall be provided adequate security and infrastructure by the state government. The competent authority may pass necessary order in this regard expeditiously. Needless to mention that the inquiry officer would be suitably remunerated," the bench said posting the matter for January 16 for further hearing.
