The Times of India: Kanpur: Wednesday, March 21, 2012.
The specially constituted dacoit-infested area court of Ramabai Nagar on Tuesday issued a notice to station officer of Shivli police station and asked him to appear in person before the court on March 24 and explain why a legal action be not taken against him for non-compliance of court order.
The presiding officer passed the order when he was hearing a criminal case. Advocate Avinash Katiyar had filed a complaint under section 156 (3) CrPC in 2009 against six cops including two sub-inspectors. One of the SI was Shiv Shankar.
The police had registered a case under sections 147, 323, 504, 506, 394 IPC on January 21, 2010. Since then, the police station neither sent any report nor submitted the final report.
The complainant sought information under RTI Act and he was informed on March 31, 2010, that investigation had been completed and a final report had been sent to the court. But since then, two years had passed and court had not received any final report.
The court on March 1, 2012, had ordered the station officer to send a detail report point wise on the application of complainant by March 10. The court, thereafter, gave two more opportunities to the station officer of Shivli police station to submit the report but the cops did not submit the final report in the court.
The presiding judge took the non-compliance seriously and issued a notice to the Shivli police station officer and said that on the fixed date, he should be present in the court and explain why he had not complied with the court order and submitted the report in time, failing which a legal action would be initiated against him.
