Jammu kashmir: Inadequate Probe in Parvaiz Case

The recent announcement of a Magisterial Inquiry into the death of Parvez Ahmed has sparked widespread criticism, with many questioning the effectiveness of such a probe. The incident, which occurred on July 24, 2025, at Surey Chak, Phallian Mandal, has raised concerns about the transparency and impartiality of the investigation.

The Government of Jammu and Kashmir’s decision to conduct a Magisterial Inquiry has been met with skepticism, with many calling for a more robust and independent investigation. A CBI or Judicial Probe under the supervision of the Hon’ble High Court has been demanded to ensure a fair and transparent inquiry.

The Magisterial Inquiry, as announced, will be conducted by the Sub Divisional Magistrate, Jammu South, and will seek information and evidence from the public. However, this move has been seen as an attempt to whitewash the incident, rather than a genuine effort to uncover the truth.

Critics argue that a Magisterial Inquiry is often used as a tool to delay or dilute the investigation, and that a more independent and robust probe is needed to bring the perpetrators to justice. The demand for a CBI or Judicial Probe is not just a call for a more thorough investigation, but also a demand for accountability and transparency.

The incident has sparked widespread outrage, with many calling for swift and decisive action against those responsible. The Government’s response will be closely watched, and it remains to be seen whether they will heed the calls for a more independent and robust investigation.

In the meantime, the public is urged to come forward with any information or evidence they may have, to aid in the investigation. The authorities must ensure that the inquiry is conducted in a fair and transparent manner, and that those responsible are brought to justice.

The case of Parvez Ahmed’s death is a stark reminder of the need for accountability and transparency in our justice system. It is imperative that the Government takes concrete steps to address the concerns of the public and ensures that justice is served.
