The Rajasthan police yesterday admitted there was a delay in taking Alwar lynch victim Akbar to a community health centre. A team of officers will present a detailed report after probing the incident, they added.

State Director General of Police (DGP) O P Galhotra was quoted as saying: "A four-member committee of senior police officials is in Alwar to inquire into the matter." Another aspect that will be probed is whether the 28-year-old was also a victim of police torture on the intervening night of Friday and Saturday. Appropriate action will be taken if any lapses are found in the inquiry report, Galhotra told media persons.
