Appearing for Amaninder Singh and Mandeep Singh Advocate Jaspal Singh Manjhpur accused the jail staff of torturing all five persons booked for 22 June incident.
He told the court that the jail staff has broken left foot of Harsimrandeep Singh and a finger of left hand of Gurpreet Singh Gopi.
He told the court that the police has deliberately not presented Harsimrandeep Singh and Gurpeet Singh Gopi before the court to hide the fact of torture and requested the court to get all five persons medically examined.
The court ordered the police to get Amarinder Singh and Mandeep Singh medically examined before taking them back to the jail. The court told the police to place the medical report before it at the earliest possible.
The court further ordered police to present Harsimrandeep Singh, Gurpreet Singh Gopi and Simarjeet Singh before the court tomorrow.
