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...
HOME Minister Anil Deshmukh’s ‘call’ to Nagpur Police for sharing details of police personnel who are deployed in the field for implementation of lockdown is going ‘unanswered’. The local police officers have not yet compiled information of the bandobast duty staff with Nagpur Police Commissionerate which prompted DCP Headquarters Vikram Sali to flash a reminder to the lethargic officers for immediate compilation of data.
Sources informed that office of Home Minister Deshmukh wrote a letter to Nagpur Police Commissionerate to share the information of police personnel who are on the bandobast duty, including their name, buckle no, wife’s name and mobile number.
The office of DCP HQ Napgur Police had then sent letters to in-charges of all police stations and other branches directing them to immediately furnish the information of 10 constabulary staff who are deployed for bandobast duties of lockdown. However, many Police Inspectors had not taken the instructions seriously which prompted DCP HQ Sali to issue another order on Tuesday.
The order stated that the police personnel are performing duties to contain the spread of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in the city. “Home Minister Anil Deshmukh will contact families of these police personnel on telephone,” the order said.
“This office had issued an order to Police Stations, Branch and Departments for compiling data of police personnel. However, the information has not been received by this office so far which is causing delay in sending the information to office of Home Minister,” stated DCP Sali in the circular.
Sources informed that being Home Minister Anil Deshmukh is waiting for list for a long time as he wanted to give nmoral support to the police families from his home town. “It would send a positive message among the police personnel. However, lethargic approach on part of a section of police officers is delaying the good cause,” he said. In Mumbai, Deshmukh had distributed Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), masks and sanitisers to Mumbai police personnel on Saturday.
