Rohtak, Dec. 7 -- : Sushil Kumar, an exemptee assistant sub-inspector (EASI), a prime accused in the corruption case registered at Rohtak on October 6, got default bail from Rohtak court on Saturday. The corruption case is believed to be the proximate trigger behind the suicide of Haryana IPS officer Y Puran Kumar. Sushil Kumar, lodged in Ambala jail, got default bail on Saturday after police withdrew the chargesheet filed on November 23. Under Section 187(3)(ii) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), he was entitled to bail after 60 days in custody. Additional district and sessions judge Kapil Rathi approved the plea moved by counsel Joginder Chandela, citing the delay. Talking to HT, Chandela said that he had moved a default bail application of Sushil in the court on Saturday as the district police failed to submit the chargesheet within the stipulated period of 60 days following his arrest. On December 5, deputy superintendent of police (DSP, City) Rohtak Gulab Singh told the court that since the public prosecutor has made certain observations with regards to the content of the chargesheet, the police is conducting further investigations. "The complete challan (chargesheet) will be presented before the court as soon as possible after the completion of investigations with regards to the observations made by the public prosecutor,'' said the status report filed by Singh. The FIR registered at Rohtak's Urban Estate police station on October 6 had named Sushil Kumar, an EASI, deployed with former Rohtak Range IGP Kumar, as an accused for demanding a bribe of Rs.2.5 lakh allegedly on behalf of the officer. Less than 24 hours later, on October 7, Puran Kumar was found dead at his Sector 11 residence in Chandigarh from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Puran Kumar had remained posted as IGP, Rohtak, for five months from April to September, 2025 before he was transferred to Police Training College, Sunaria, on the night of September 29. Puran Kumar's wife, Amneet, in a complaint to Chandigarh Police had alleged that a false FIR was registered on October 6 against Sushil and "under a well-planned conspiracy, her husband was being implicated in the said case by fabricating evidence against him, which pushed him for his final anguish." The Rohtak police on Friday told the trial court that they are rectifying anomalies raised by the public prosecutor in the chargesheet, which was filed under section 193 (3) of BNSS through electronic communication on November 23 against Sushil Kumar. DSP Gulab Singh told HT that the police had submitted the chargesheet on the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems portal but withdrew it after the public prosecutor made certain observations. "Probe is on and a complete chargesheet will be submitted soon," he said. "We have the forensic report of the accused's mobile phone. A crime scene was re-created and his voice samples were confirmed in the forensic report. Digital videos of crime scenes were recorded and their forensic science laboratory report is awaited. The service record of the accused was also collected," the DSP said in the status report....
