By Dheeraj Fartode Shocking allegations of misconduct have emerged against a police officer in Nagpur City Police. The officer is accused of abusive and degrading behaviour, particularly targeting accused in Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. Sources claim that the senior officer arrives at the police station and calls the accused into a separate room, where the officer not only hurls abuse at the accused but also spits at their face. Later, the officer allegedly kicks the accused in the private parts. In some incidents, when a couple approached a police station in Nagpur to file a complaint following a domestic dispute, the police sent a proposal for preventive action to the officer. However, instead of handling the matter professionally, the officer allegedly made the man sit down, then kicked him in the private parts and leave him in pain and humiliation. The behaviour of the high ranked official have raised questions about the professionalism of law enforcemen...
Acting tough against the chain snatchers, the city police on Monday booked Sachin Peshve and five others, involved in 14 incidents of chain snatching in different parts of city, under Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA). Commissioner of Police Dr Ankush Dhanvijay had promised to book the chain snatchers under MCOCA for spreading terror among women and morning walkers and zooming past with their gold chains or Mangalasutra.
Keeping a close watch on gang of accused, Hudkeshwar police nabbed Peshve, a resident of Bajrang Nagar, lane no 11, Manewada road and his associates, when they were about to strike. The gang confessed to various incidents of chain-snatching and cops recovered a huge cache of gold chains from them. Hudkeshwar police has registered offence under sections 393, 411,413 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code against them and also conducted a raid at the premises of Bharat alias Bunty Galbale, a resident of Besa, who purchased the stolen goods.
The cops have also booked Bunty Galbale under section 3 of MCOCA for helping the gang in disposal of stolen gold chains and mangalsutra. ACP (Ajni) and Senior PI of Hudkeshwar Police Station are investing the matter under the guidance of DCP Zone IV.
Dr Dhanvijay has directed all police stations to keep a close vigil on chain snatchers and slap MCOCA against them. Every police officer has been directed to intensify patrolling, combing, nakabandi, verification of habitual offenders so as to bring down street crimes.
