 "summary": "Special CBI Judge J.P.S. Malik convicted 17 Uttarakhand policemen for gunning down 22-year-old MBA student a Dehradun man in a staged encounter near Dehradun on 3 July 2009 after branding him an extortionist; the prosecution proved the crime scene was doctored. Seven were convicted of substantive murder and ten of conspiracy/kidnapping-to-murder; all 17 drew life terms on 9 June 2014, while control-room operator [name withheld] was convicted only of falsifying records. The Supreme Court had transferred the trial from Dehradun to Delhi on the father's plea.",
