IPS officer Yeshwardhan Azad, BJP national spokesperson Sanju Verma, Trinamool Congress spokesperson Dr Manab Jaiswal, and political analysts Manajit Mandal and Riju Dutta discuss the recent police encounter of Prabhat Mondal. Mondal was a key accused in the rape and murder of a minor in West Bengal. During a recreation of the crime scene, the accused was shot dead by the police. The police claim he attempted to flee by grabbing a service revolver.
Trinamool Congress representatives question the legitimacy of the encounter, stating that the accused had turned into a witness and was aiding the investigation to locate other suspects. BJP representatives argue that the police acted in self-defense and highlight that Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari has promised a thorough investigation into the incident to ensure due process of law. The panel examines the legal provisions regarding the use of lethal force by the police and debates the broader implications for the criminal justice system and women safety in the state of West Bengal.
