NHRC, India was submitted with request to cancel chargesheet and the matter is sub-judice. iii. On perusal of the report, the Commission on 18/04/2018 observed that the allegations of the complainant of illegal arrest were made out, leading to violation of human rights, for which the State was vicariously liable on the part of police authority, and hence issued a Show Cause Notice to the State of Uttar Pradesh through its Chief Secretary as to why compensation of Rs.25,000/- should not be recommended to be paid to each of the victims. iv. Since no response was received to the Show Cause Notice, the Commission on 27/11/2018 confirmed the recommendations for grant of monetary relief on the ground that the State authority had nothing to controvert in the matter. v. The Supdt. Of Police, (HR), vide their letter dated 26/11/2021, informed the Commission that compensation of Rs. 25,000/- was paid to both the victims and also sent proof of payment. vi. The Commission on 15/03/2022 noted that the present complainant had alleged that her sons were arrested by police with malafide intention on false grounds. The Commission, vide its proceedings dated 18.4.2018, had observed that as it was a case of illegal arrest, sons of the complainant were to be paid Rs. 25,000/- each. The Supdt. Of Police, (HR), vide letter dated 13.4.2020, informed that compensation of Rs. 25,000/- was paid to both the victims and also sent proof of payment. Even though compensation was paid to victims, disciplinary action was not initiated against errant officer as a result of which he retired from service.
