Chandigarh Chemist Alleges Abduction, Planted Evidence in Drugs Case: HC Seeks DGP Report
Chandigarh: In a dramatic twist to a four-year-old synthetic drugs case, the Punjab and Haryana High Court has demanded answers from the Chandigarh Police Chief after a city-based chemist alleged that he was falsely implicated through abduction, planted evidence, and fabricated records.
The case dates back to March 2020, when chemist Karan Sharda and his associate, Durgesh Mishra, were arrested near Sai Baba Mandir in Sector 29. Police claimed to have recovered synthetic drugs from their vehicle. However, Sharda has countered this version, alleging that he was forcibly picked up from the Zirakpur-Ambala highway by unidentified men in civilian clothes and later compelled to call Mishra to the spot. He further pointed to glaring discrepancies between the FIR and forensic findings, as well as contradictions exposed by mobile tower and call detail records.
