The Ror community held a mahapanchayat in Kurukshetra on Wednesday, demanding a CBI or high court-monitored probe into the August 7 police encounter in Karnal where two men were killed. The police claimed Harsh and Birbal were shot when they opened fire on a checkpoint set up to investigate the August 5 murder of Veer Valmiki. The community calls the encounter 'fake' and also seeks the transfer of Karnal SP Narender Bijrania and action against local BJP MLA Jagmohan Anand. BJP MLA Satpal Jamba attended the gathering and said he would stand with the community. The police earlier stated the two suspects were accused in petty criminal cases and were rushed to hospital after the exchange, where they were declared dead. SP Bijrania was unavailable for comment.
