400 more soldiers petition SC against dilution of AFSPA
Challenging the criminal cases filed against security personnel in insurgency-hit areas, 400 more soldiers petitioned the Supreme Court against the dilution of Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act. Earlier this month, 350 soldiers had moved the SC with a similar request. Last year, the SC had ordered a probe into 1,500 allegations of human rights violations by security personnel in Manipur.
