NEW DELHI, May 7: A Delhi court today issued production warrant against Jammu and Kashmir Police officer DySP Davinder Singh, who was arrested while ferrying two Hizbul-Mujahideen terrorists in a vehicle on the Srinagar-Jammu Highway earlier this year.
Special Judge M K Nagpal directed the authorities of Hiranagar Jail in Jammu and Kashmir, where Singh is currently lodged, to produce him before the court here on May 18, his advocate Prashant Prakash said.
The Judge also issued production warrants against three other accused persons – Javed Iqbal, Syed Naveed Mushtaq and Imran Shafi Mir – arrested in the case.
The order was passed after Tihar jail authorities informed the Judge that the accused persons could not be brought before the court since they are currently in a J-K jail.
Singh, a DySP, was suspended in January this year.
The Special Cell had brought him to Delhi from Hiranagar Jail in Jammu and Kashmir.
The court had earlier sent Syed Naveed Mushtaq and others to police custody till April 3 after the police said that he and other co accused were planning to execute terror attacks in Delhi and various parts of the country and targeted killings of protected person.
The police had said that Mushtaq, the commander of Shopian district of Hizbul Mujahiddeen, used to chat with other co-accused and militants through various internet platforms, including darknet chat.(PTI)
