Punjab Newsline: Jalandhar:Tuesday,
February 12, 2013.
Fed up with
the false assurances by the senior police officers and the politicians that
justice would be done to his daughter, Jaswant Singh, a retired employee of the
Punjab police finally announced to hold dharna before the office of the
Jalandhar Police Commissioner in case justice was not done to her daughter
within a week.
Interacting
with the media this afternoon, Jaswant Singh alleged that his daughter
Rajwinder Kaur was married to Ramesh Lal, son of Sat Pal of Phagwara in 1998.
Six months after only she was forced to bring Rs. 2 lakh from her parents. But
the family failed to arrange for the money. Meanwhile some reputed persons
intervened to patch up.
Three
children were also born out of the conjugal relations between the couple. The
in-laws of Rajwinder Kaur continued harassing her following which a complaint
was filed at PS division no. 4 here u/s 498, 406 and 342 of the IPC against
Ramesh Lal, his parents and a sister on June 29, 2006. The police arrested all
the four persons.
Since Sat
Pal, father-in-law of Rajwinder was a rich persons having links with
influential politicians, he managed to get the matter reinvestigated and
succeeded in getting the FIR registered against him and other family members
cancelled.
The then SP
(crime) probed the matter without summoning us to place the facts and the FIR
was cancelled with in five months after it was registered.
Jaswant Singh
alleged that he had applied for a copy of the proceedings of the inquiry
conducted by the SP (crime) under RTI act 2005 under which the FIR was
cancelled on May 17, 2007 in the office of the DGP at Chandigarh but till date
he had not received any copy.
He said that
the IG Jalandhar II had also asked the Police Commissioner to review the case
but all in vain.
He said that he
had been running from pillar to post for the last more than six years to seek
justice for his daughter and three children and even had met the deputy chief
minister but to no avail.
