In Gujarat, a sessions court has issued a warrant against suspended IPS officer Sanjeev Bhatt in a 1990 case relating to a person's death due to alleged police beating. The bailable warrant was issued by Additional Session Judge N T Solanki in Jamnagar on Tuesday, after Bhatt failed to appear in the court in Jamkhambhaliya taluka.Last month, the state government had withdrawn a petition seeking revision of the lower court's order initiating criminal proceedings against Bhatt and six others for allegedly beating up people in Jamkhambhalia taluka in 1990, when communal clashes had broken out in the area.
