The Chhattisgarh High Court has nullified three FIRs filed against former Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) GP Singh, describing the charges brought under the previous Congress-led government as "malicious."

The division bench, comprising Chief justice Ramesh Sinha & Justice Ravindra Kumar Agrawal, delivered the ruling.

The case was filed in 2021, with allegations against GP Singh, a 1994-batch Indian Police Service (IPS) officer, including disproportionate assets, sedition, and extortion. That year, the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) and the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) registered an FIR against Singh under the Prevention of Corruption Act. Their investigations suggested that Singh had allegedly accumulated assets surpassing his known sources of income.

Subsequent searches conducted between July 1 and July 3, 2021, uncovered movable and immovable assets worth an estimated ₹10 crore. Following the raids, Singh was suspended on July 5, 2021, and the Raipur police registered additional charges, accusing him of sedition and promoting enmity based on materials recovered during the searches.

Back in 2021, an extortion case linked to an incident from 2015 was also registered at Supela police station of Durg district.

Later in January 2022, Singh was arrested in connection with the disproportionate assets case, but the court granted conditional bail by the high court in May of the same year.

Singh was subsequently given compulsory retirement in July 2023, although the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) ordered his reinstatement in April 2024.
