The Maharashtra Police is discussing the provision of security to three former IPS officers — AN Roy, KP Raghuvanshi and Jaijeet Singh — who were involved in the investigation of the July 11, 2006, Mumbai train blasts case. The move comes amid concerns over potential backlash to officers following the release of all those arrested in the blast case.

According to a section of senior police officers, during a meeting of the police department, a suggestion by ATS chief and 1995 batch IPS officer Naval Bajaj regarding the security of the high-level officers involved in the train blast probe to the Maharashtra Director General of Police (DGP) Rashmi Shukla, was briefly mentioned.

In 2006, Roy was the commissioner of police (Mumbai), Raghuvanshi was heading the ATS, and Singh was a DIG-rank officer in his squad. A senior official from the Home Department, on the condition of anonymity, confirmed the development but refused to share any more details on the same.
