  • City Police to appoint eight law officers soon
  • Law officer will help police in all legal process


By Dheeraj Fartode

WITH an aim to secure conviction rate, the Maharashtra Police have decided to recruits law officers in all units across the state. The law officers would be appointed on contract basis after written examination and interviews. Process has already started at Nagpur Police Commissionerate to appoint eight law officers for city police.

Joint Commissioner of Police (Joint CP) Rajvardhan informed ‘The Hitavada’ that the process began following a circular issued by office of Director General of Police last week.
“An advertisement would be published soon regarding appointments. A written examination will be held in the city and then candidates will be shortlisted for interviews,” he said.

Rajvardhan further said that law officers would play key role in legal process, right from filing of First Investigation Report (FIR) to chargesheet in the court.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP Detection) Ranjan Kumar Sharma said securing conviction of the accused in the court is the ultimate aim of police and law officers would help to achieve it. “Eight law officers would be appointed in the city. One officer would be appointed as senior law officer and would get salary of Rs 25,000/- month. Four officers will get salary worth Rs 20,000/- month and three officers will get Rs 15,000/- month,” said DCP Sharma.

‘The Hitavada’ accessed the copy of the circular which stated that age of the officer must not be over 62 years. The officer will have to handle departmental inquires, administrative matters and also give legal opinion about present status of law.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP HQ) Deepali Masirkar said that the law officer would also remain in constant touch with government pleader for fast trials of criminal cases.
“They will also have responsibility to study the acquit cases and file the case again in the court to secure conviction. Most important is that the law officer will also help at police station level to file first investigation report,” DCP Masirkar added.

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
