Shailendra Singh (police officer)

Shailendra Singh is a former Deputy Superintendent of Police in India.[1][2][3][4][5] Following his 2004 resignation, the Congress Party appointed him the chair of its Right to Information Task Force for the province of Uttar Pradesh.

Singh was arrested in September 2008.[1] Authorities claimed he had been arrested while he tried to lead a gang in ransacking the offices of the State Information Commission. Political colleagues asserted he had been arrested in his own home, at 1:30am, and that his arrest was politically motivated. Singh was released on bail on 2008, October 2.[4]
