Jaswinder Singh, a Border Security Force (BSF) jawan, died in the custody of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) in Amritsar, Punjab, India, on March 20, 2023. An autopsy revealed 34 injuries on his body, with 25 injuries occurring just days before his death. Singh had been arrested on March 3 while on leave, in connection with a drug-related investigation. His health deteriorated during interrogation, leading to his death in a hospital. The Punjab State Human Rights Commission (PHRO) has taken note of the case, emphasizing that the treatment of a soldier is unacceptable in a civilized society. PHRO chairman Justice Ranjit Singh (retd) expressed concerns over the NCB's lack of communication with Singh's family, which raises suspicions of misconduct. Singh's wife, Lovejit Kaur, claims that no First Information Report (FIR) has been filed, alleging harassment by authorities. Advocate Sarabjit Singh Verka from PHRO stated that the local police have not registered an FIR despite complaints, further complicating the investigation.
