Custodial death: SC raps CBI for failing to arrest absconding MP copsLast Updated: September 23, 2025, 20:30 ISTRepresentational image (Image: News18)New Delhi, Sep 23 (PTI) The Supreme Court on Tuesday chided the CBI for not arresting absconding police officials accused of a youth’s custodial death in Madhya Pradesh and warned of contempt action. They are absconding, proclamation is there and yet you can’t trace and arrest them. The bench questioned the CBI over its inability to arrest the two officers, Sanjiv Singh Mawai and Uttam Singh Kushwaha, who have been absconding since April. The top court, however, directed the CBI to file a detailed status report on the investigation so far and steps taken to arrest the absconding accused.
