SC to appoint panel to inquire into Manipur encounter killings

Update: 2013-01-05 01:00 GMT
The apex court on Friday decided to appoint a panel comprising former SC judge Santosh Hegde, former CEC J M Lyngdoh and a senior police officer to hold an inquiry into the fake encounter killings in Manipur. A bench of justices Aftab Alam and Ranjana Prakash Desai, however, said it would pass the formal order on Monday after getting assents from Hegde and Lyngdoh. The commission will be holding enquiry in six cases where the magisterial probe raised question on the genuineness of the encounter.
