I’m a tenant and my brother had a disagreement with our landlord. The landlord attacked my brother, burning him with kerosene oil. He was hospitalized but passed away two days later. We filed a complaint but haven’t received any response. The police and local political party seem to be supporting the landlord. What can I do?

You have grounds to file a case of murder against the landlord under the Indian Penal Code. You can also approach the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and the State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) to investigate the alleged police inaction and political interference. You should seek legal counsel from a lawyer specializing in criminal law to navigate the legal process effectively.
