The Supreme Court of India formally rejected the bail plea of suspended Punjab Police Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Harcharan Singh Bhullar during a hearing on Tuesday. The court characterized the petition as a "100 per cent case of dismissal," signaling a firm refusal to grant relief to the officer at this stage of the proceedings.

Bhullar, who has been under suspension, was taken into custody by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in October of last year. His arrest is tied to an ongoing investigation into corruption allegations. This latest court appearance marked his second attempt to secure bail since his incarceration. While the court’s verbal remarks during the hearing were definitive regarding the dismissal of the plea, the legal proceedings regarding the underlying corruption charges remain active. The court did not provide extensive public commentary on the merits of the corruption case itself, focusing instead on the immediate request for release from custody.
