Ropar Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Vivek Sheel Soni, told The Indian Express that an investigation had been launched in the case and an FIR yet to be registered.
Even as many activists questioned the decision to grant Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh bail, a BJP Rajya Sabha MP attended an online religious meeting conducted by the convicted leader.
This was confirmed by Senior Medical Officer Narinder Singh, who told reporters that a five-member board of doctors from the local civil hospital conducted the autopsy. Meanwhile, the man was cremated as no one came forward to claim the body. Police are yet to register a murder case.
