A Ganderbal man was arrested by SOG personnel at Ganderbal and killed in custody, his body handed to relatives the next day; local police refused to register an FIR until the High Court ordered it (FIR No. 107/2002). The court recorded the State's admission that its own investigation had established the involvement of DySP [name withheld] and SPO [name withheld] in the death, and that the criminal case was later closed as untraced after both officers died. The court held the family had lost its sole bread earner, awarded Rs 3 lakh compensation saddled on the State Government payable within three months, and directed the State to consider the petitioner for compassionate appointment under SRO 43 with age relaxation. It clarified the award would not bar the family from seeking further compensation through appropriate remedy. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.
