As expected, instead of taking stern action against those responsible for not taking immediate action on receipt of ‘Missing Persons’ complaint with the police, the police officials were prompt in taking credit of solving the crime within 48 hours.
The district police on Tuesday night issued a statement in which it was claimed that the prompt action taken by police solved the case within 48 hours. A list of police personnel played important role in solving the case was also mentioned. Besides, it said that the DIG has declared reward for the cops did commendable job.
However, factually, the laxity by police officials in investigating the abduction case claimed one more life in Bhopal; this time in Bairagarh Chichli locality of Kolar road.
Instead of taking stern action against the police officials for negligence in investigating the abduction case, Public Relations Minister PC Sharma had felicitated the cops on Monday.
They were felicitated for solving the abduction and rape case of 9-year-old girl in Nehru Nagar locality. However, neither the minister nor senior officials took stern action against the guilty police personnel, with whose negligence the girl was raped and murdered.
Yet again, the police officials are ready to pat their back over solving the sensational abduction and rape case within 48 hours. Local Minister for Public Relations PC Sharma would again felicitate the police personnel in solving the case.
Four-year-old Varun Meena had disappeared on Sunday evening from near his residence and the police personnel did not take the incident seriously even after passing the night. On Monday, instead of launching a massive hunt for the boy, the police officials including CSP Bhupendra Singh had told ‘The Pioneer’ that the boy might have been taken away by wild animals.
Surprisingly, the police officials were so alert that despite having visited the house of the neighbor who murdered the boy, did not search the house.
The investigation conducted so far revealed that the boy remained captive in the same house, but did not search the house despite the fact that wife of the house owner asked the cops to search for Varun in their house.
