Amneet claimed her husband faced “systematic humiliation and persecution” by senior officers and that a “false extortion FIR” was part of a conspiracy to frame him. She invoked the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act in her plea for justice.

October 9: IAS officer Amneet P. Kumar, the wife of senior Haryana IPS officer Y. Puran Kumar, who allegedly died by suicide on Tuesday, has filed a formal complaint with the Chandigarh Police seeking an FIR against Haryana DGP Shatrujeet Singh Kapur and Rohtak SP Narendra Bijarnia, accusing them of abetment to suicide and caste-based harassment.
In her complaint, Amneet invoked Section 108 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) for abetment to suicide and provisions of the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, alleging that her husband’s death was “not an ordinary suicide, but the result of systematic persecution of an honest officer from a Scheduled Caste community by powerful superiors.”
“Justice must not only be done but must be seen to be done — even for families like ours, shattered by the cruelty of the powerful,” she wrote in the complaint.
Amneet described her late husband as an “officer of unimpeachable integrity and extraordinary public spirit” who endured “years of systematic humiliation, harassment, and persecution,” particularly under DGP Kapur. She also alleged that the DGP and SP ignored Puran Kumar’s repeated pleas for help in the days leading up to his death.
The IAS officer claimed her husband had warned her about a conspiracy to implicate him in a “false extortion case” (FIR No. 0319/2025) filed at Rohtak’s Urban Estate Police Station on October 6. She said he was “pushed to his final anguish” after realizing he was being framed.

Rohtak SP Narendra Bijarnia, responding to media queries, maintained that the extortion case was “based on strong evidence” and that he had “full faith in Chandigarh Police to conduct a fair probe.”
Amneet’s complaint also alleges that her husband faced caste-based discrimination, exclusion from police places of worship, and humiliation over his background, despite invoking protection under the SC/ST Act.
Describing his eight-page suicide note as “a document of a broken spirit,” Amneet said it names several officers whose “relentless actions drove him to the edge.” She urged the Chandigarh Police to arrest both the DGP and SP, warning that their powerful positions could allow them to “tamper with evidence or influence witnesses.”
“It is impossible to express what my children and I have lost — a husband, a father, and a man whose only crime was honesty in service,” she wrote.
Police have confirmed recovering the suicide note, which has been sent for forensic examination.
