SRINAGAR, Apr 18: To uphold the sanctity of the courts, Justice Ali Mohammad Magrey today directed the State counsel to apprise the Director General of Police that any police officer shall be in proper uniform while appearing before the court in respect of any case.
The direction has been passed in a case in which court had directed the Crime Branch Police for bringing the case diary of the case and one police official in this connection appeared before the court without uniform.
