Anshul Chatrpati Challenges Acquittal of Ram Rahim in 2002 Murder

Anshul Chatrpati, son of the late Ram Chand Chatrpati, has lodged a special leave petition before the Supreme Court, questioning the Punjab‑Haryana High Court's March 7, 2026 order that cleared Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh of murder charges. The original conviction, delivered by a special CBI court in Panchkula, sentenced Ram Rahim and three co‑accused—Kuldeep Singh, Nirmal Singh and Krishna Lal—to life imprisonment. The petitioner argues that the High Court's acquittal undermines the earlier judgment and seeks a re‑examination of the evidence.
