17 cops get life term for 2009 encounter case

A Delhi court on Monday awarded life imprisonment to 17 of the 18 policemen convicted of killing a 22-year-old MBA student in a fake shootout in Dehradun in 2009.

Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Special Judge JPS Malik awarded life terms to 17 policemen involved in the fake gun battle.
The court Friday convicted 18 policemen for the cold blooded murder of the youth, but acquitted one of them of the murder charge while convicting him for falsifying records.

Jaspal Singh Gosain, the head operator at city control room, was convicted under Section 218 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) (public servant framing incorrect record).

The 18 policemen were charge sheeted by the CBI in connection with the Ranbir Singh case that rocked the hill state in July 2009.
