⚖️ 1984 riots case FIR order overturned after 40 years

A Delhi court recently set aside a 2017 order that had directed the registration of an FIR concerning the 1984 anti-Sikh riots. The decision was made because there was no fresh and credible material to revive a criminal investigation decades later. The case originated from a complaint by riot survivor Amrik Singh regarding police inaction and wrongful arrests.
