In regard to
the controversial disbanding of the Special Intelligence Unit on January 15
after seizure of a huge quantity of pseudo-ephedrine tablets, the crux of the
matter and the dealings of the police have been quizzed by an RTI activist
regarding various seizures made by different police teams and the SIU.
An
application under section 8 of the RTI was requested from the Joint Secretary
(Home) yesterday. The questions include how many personnel were utilized in the
SIU and to make available copies of the FIR cases registered by the SIU since
its inception. It also sought to produce copies in regard to establishing the
unit and further for its abolishment.
It mentions
that SIU had seized contraband drugs worth one crore forty lakhs from an Air
Deccan flight on 11/1/2013. It asked whether the information was taken down in
writing and the same was informed to the immediate Superior officer besides
inquiring on When, where and who had sealed the said seized drugs and where it
is being kept till date.
It also
mentioned of what returns the Home Department of the State had tendered to
inspector K Ranjit and the SIU team for their outstanding achievements. The
appellate further questioned the involvement of one person named ‘Henery’in
some cases and what has been the follow up so far.
The
antecedents of the seizures of drugs from Mantripukhri, from a VDF personnel, by Thoubal police from
Pallel area, from the six persons which included colonel Ajay Chodhary ,
seizure from MLA TN Haokip’s son, etc. was put up through the RTI. It was asked
whether the drugs are still in custody, whether they have been sent to the
Forensic lab and tested, the analysis report and who had sealed the drugs.
