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...

Bhandara police are exploring six theories to crack the rape-cum-murder case of three sisters of village Murmadi in Lakhni tehsil of Bhandara district. The cops are going in old fashioned way to isolate the suspects by trying to find the last person to see the three girls alive, said a senior officer familiar with the line of investigation. Right now there are several theories about motive, and police are trying to build case in each of the scenarios to get the leads.
One of the basic presumption of investigators is that girls knew the assailants and hence they readily accompanied him. Now, whether that person was a relative or just a casual acquaintance, forms the main line of the investigators, it is learnt. The girls had gone with a man and his accomplices who then committed the heinous crime that has shook the entire State.
As the place of crime happens to be remote area, the cops are relying heavily on the inputs from the villagers. And, that is where the mistrust among the locals is acting as a major hindrance in the investigations, the sources claimed. Cops have launched manhunt for the person, which whom the girls had gone to school. “Surely, some of the villagers must have spotted the girls with the accused person on February 14 but no one is coming forward to help us,” one of the police officer stated.
Acting upon claims of villagers, the cops are also examining involvement of inter-state gang of criminals in the ghastly incident. Workers from adjoining State were working at one of the construction site and some criminal element among them could be involved, but at this stage there is no definite clue. Bhandara police have formed ten-teams who are working day and night on the case. So far 20-persons were interrogated but cops are still looking for that one clue to get going.

Maharashtra Minister for Employment Guarantee Scheme and Water Conservation, Dr Nitin Raut, Member of Rajya Sabha, Rajni Patil, along with a Member of Maharashtra Commission for SC/ST C L Thool on Sunday toured the Murmadi and Panchgaon villages and took a review of the investigations.
