Attar Singh is a native of the Punjab belonging to a family which has furnished many fighting men to the Indian army. Some of them, like Attar Singh himself (see statement R page 7) bore the rank of native officer.
It is urged that in the case of Attar Singh's printed papers, the personal services of Attar Singh, and in the event of any doubt those of numerous members of his family, and the well-proved loyalty of the small but gallant race to which he belonged, be allowed to weigh heavily in the disposal of his case.
Dismissal plus the loss of pension, is a most crushing and bitter end to a hitherto honorable career.
NOTE: In the absence of copies of official records of the cases (copies of evidence in the first case were asked for by Attar Singh's agent but no reply was given), this note has been drawn up mainly from the printed papers furnished by Attar Singh and from statements subsequently made by him.

There is good reason to believe (Inspector Stanton's Affidavit see page 2 of the printed papers in Attar Singh's case, dated 30th April 1906, and a petition to the Secretary of State paras 5 and annexures) that the statement made by the principal witness, Tse Letung at the enquiry into Inspector Stanton's conduct, flatly contradicts the incriminating statement made by him in Attar Singh's case. It is submitted that these statements should be compared.
