More custodial deaths in Maha than other states: Centre
The government on Tuesday admitted that instances of custodial deaths in Maharashtra were a "little more" as compared to other states. There were 35 such instances in the state in 2013, 21 in 2014 and 19 in 2015, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said. BJP's Satyapal Singh, former Mumbai Police Commissioner, however, called the state police the best in India.
