Jammu Police refutes reports floating on social media regarding custodial death in Jorian

“There is misinformation floating on Social Media platforms regarding death of a person in Police custody in Police Post Jorian, Jammu.”

1. It is informed that a person namely Sunil kumar @ Sonu S/o Dewan Chand R/o Garhi Bishnah Jourian was brought to police post Jourian in compliance to warrant issued by “2nd Additional District Judge Jammu” on 21/12/23 and was to be produced in the said court on 22/12/23.

2. On 22/12/23 he was shifted to CHC Jourian as he was not responding, where doctors declared him dead.

3. The Magisterial Probe has already been ordered by Deputy Commissioner Jammu. The “post mortem” of deceased was conducted by a board of doctors in GMC Jammu in presence of magistrate and videography has also been done.

4. Pertinent to mention that whole premises including lockup of Police post Jourian is under “CCTV surveillance”.
