SP Gandhi claimed that confidential information from the CID was leaked by the employees within the DGP office, which affects sensitive studies. He revealed that the Shimla police found in the case of the infamous drug smuggler Sanjay Bhuria that the most important secret services were passed on within the police headquarters.
