On 25 September, an FIR was registered in the Ishrat Jahan case against the disappearance of documents crucial to the case.

The FIR has been filed by Under Secretary, Government of India, at the Sansad Marg Police Station.

According to reports, the Delhi Police has initiated a probe into the case of missing documents pertaining to the sensational Ishrat Jahan encounter that took place in 2004.

In March this year, a team of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) had found that around five different documents, including two affidavits, were missing.

Earlier, it was decided that the probe will be handed over to the CBI but later the MHA directed the Delhi Police to probe the matter.

Ishrat Jahan was killed in an alleged fake encounter in Gujarat in 2004.
