According to the prosecution case, on July 12, 1991, UP Police pulled 10-11 Sikh pilgrims out of a bus, shot them and later called them 'terrorists' to cover up the incident.

Lucknow: The Lucknow bench of Allahabad high court has rejected the bail pleas of 34 former constables of the Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) accused of killing 10 Sikh men in an alleged fake encounter in 1991.

“The gruesome murder of the deceased who had no criminal antecedents along with some of the deceased who had criminal antecedents, cannot be in any manner justified treating all the deceased to be the terrorists, by separating them from their wives and children, who were going to a pilgrimage in the bus, by the appellants and taking them in another bus and killing them in a fake encounter at three different places of district Pilibhit”, the court observed.

“More so, if some of the deceased were involved in anti-social activities and criminal cases were registered against them, then too procedure established by law should have been adhered to, to bring them to task and not indulging in such a barbaric and inhuman killing of the innocent persons,” it said.

A bench of Justices Ramesh Sinha and Brij Raj Singh passed the order while deciding the bail pleas moved by the appellants individually, along with their appeals preferred against their conviction and sentence awarded by a special CBI court at Lucknow in 2016.
