December 06(KNS): Yesterday suspended Constable namely Azad Ahmad Dar (PID EXK-111504) son of Late M Shafi Dar resident of Tankipora Shaheedgunj Srinagar, who appeared before the press at Press Enclave and levelled serious allegations against a Police officer.
In a statement issued to KNS by Jammu and Kashmir Police it reads that, the said constable is a drug addict and figures as main accused as drug peddler in two NDPS cases, FIR No 27/2019 of PS Nishat (challaned on 10.12.2019) and FIR no 58/2020 of PS Shergarhi (under investigation).
It further reads that, The said constable was running absent since his suspension 02/10/2020, so his uniform being torn by a Police Officer doesn't arise. He has earlier been awarded three major punishments after the outcome of departmental enquiries ordered in his acts of indiscipline earlier.
“Ct Azad has been placed under suspension four times during his four years tenure in Srinagar District for various violations”.
The statement also reads that,The said constable is a habitual offender and it is highly possible that he was under the influence of drugs even when he was addressing the press in order to gain sympathy from the general public and hide his misdeeds.There is a proper platform to address such grievances, if any. His going to press is testimony of him being defiant and indisciplined.JK Police being a highly disciplined organisation does not ascribe to these acts of indiscipline(KNS).
