The Madras High Court has suspended an interim order appointing a one-man commission to investigate allegations of police excess during Chennai conservation worker protests. The order, initially granted by the Greater Chennai Commissioner of Police, is now being held in abeyance pending a petition challenging its validity. The petition argues the Commissioner’s decision is unlawful, citing potential bias and lack of adequate safeguards. The court will review the petition before making a final decision.
