DCP spits and assaults accused in custody

By
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...

City police's Zone - I records surge in body offences, robberies and vehicle thefts

By Dheeraj Fartode

Zone - I of Nagpur Police Commissionerate covers Sonegaon, MIDC, Hingna, Pratap Nagar, Bajaj and Wadi Police Stations. The Zone is showing decreasing trend of crime by 7.07% and 12.66% increase in detection rate, which is more than Nagpur Police Commissionerate. However, the Zonal officials need to 
DCP Dipali Masirkar, IPS
curb the surge in body offences, robberies and vehicle thefts  and also ensure that preventive action are taken in uniform manner across the jurisdiction. 


Crime statistics of  the Zone shows that the Zone has recorded 1,575 crime cases in year 2016 as against 1,695 cases in year 2015 and 2014. The Zone has detected 1,044 cases with detection rate of 66.28% in year 2016 while detection rate of the Zone was 53.62% in year 2015 and 54.04% in year 2014. The Zone initiated 1,509 preventive actions against active criminals, including seven stringent MCOCA Act and three MPDA cases. 
In year 2016, the Zone accounted for 16.20 per cent crime of Nagpur City. Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Dipali Masirkar is the in-charge of the Zone-I. 
If compared with the statistics of preventive action with reported crime, it can be observed that the Zonal DCP has been slow in ensuring preventive action across all police stations to curb the body offences and surging thefts. Despite registering highest crime of 473, the Pratap Nagar police initiated only 253 preventive action which is less than Hingna PS which took 387 preventive action whereas number of cases were just 213. MIDC PS of the same Zone have booked 302 criminals under preventive action and it ultimately had effect in occurrence of crime which recorded slump of 13.91%. All these police stations are part of Zone-I, but strategic crackdown against criminals is not uniform and that could because gaps in supervision of DCP Deepali Masirkar. 
Crime in Zone one of Nagpur City
The graph of murder cases has not changed in year 2016 as the Zone recorded 20 cases in year 2016 and 2015. But more important is investigation. Two murders of year 2015 and a murder of 2016 are still undetected. One that is of a priest -- Jagan Kodape (75) -- in Jai Maa Kali Mandir in Defence area was murdered by assailants in May 2016. This again exposed lacunae in investigation and reminds needs for upgrading skills of investigators in department. In year 2015 also, the Zone had recorded 20 murders and two of them are still undetected.
Attempt to murder cases declined by two while dacoity by a single digit and chain snatchings by 15. While important heads like vehicle thefts, robberies, cheating, hurt, molestation have seen surging graph in year 2016. Most important is hurt cases increased by 17 per cent in year 2016. This statistics of increase in body offences (non bankable) is the real indicator of failure of policing at Zonal DCP levels.
Wadi police station has recorded maximum seven murders followed by five in Sonegaon, three in Pratap Nagar, two each in Hingna and MIDC and one at Bajaj Nagar area. 
Out of total 30 chain snatching cases 14 each were took place in posh localities of Sonegaon and Pratap Nagar police station area and two in MIDC area. 
As far as theft cases are concerned, Rana Pratap Nagar is the worst affected area of the Zone where massive 170 thefts including 74 motor vehicle thefts were reported. The MIDC PS reported 96 thefts followed by 73 in Sonegaon and 51 in Wadi and 44 in Hingna.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

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...

Longest cable-stayed bridge to boost tourism at Ambhora

By
CONSTRUCTION work of 700-metre-long cable-stayed bridge, longest in the country, with a viewing gallery at the top at Ambhora in Kuhi tehsil is near completion. The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State. However, the banks were submerged in water after the construction of Gosikhurd dam which led to rise in water levels. Since then, tourist flow at Ambhora has also declined. However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is...
