Kerala HC acquits all cops in Udayakumar custodial death case
The Kerala High Court acquitted all accused police officers in the sensational 2005 Udayakumar custodial death case on Wednesday. A division bench observed that the CBI had “failed in its investigation,” leading to the acquittal of all surviving accused. The death sentence that a CBI court had awarded to the first and second accused, too, has been quashed.
