Cases Pending Against Defence Personnel

The information related to cases filed in all the courts is not centrally maintained. However, there are 28 cases of alleged human rights violation (such as rape / torture / killing / disappearance / custodial deaths) against defence personnel pending in High-Courts of North-Eastern States pertaining to years 2012 to 2015.

During the last three years, only one Officer, three Junior Commissioned Officers (JCOs) and one Other Rank (OR) have been punished under departmental action for procedural lapses in Assam.

This information was given by Defence Minister Shri Manohar Parrikar in a written reply to Shri Sirajuddin Ajmal in Lok Sabha today.
