Mumbai, Dec 25: Assistant Police Inspector G W Jadhav of Mumbai crime branch, arrested by the special Investigation Team (SIT) for his alleged complicity in the fake stamps scam, was remanded to police custody till December 30, today. The SIT, which arrested Jadhav last night, produced him in the court of magistrate P P Suroshe today. Public prosecutor Nagarale, while seeking police custody of API Jadhav informed the court that the police official did not initiate steps to arrest scamster Abdul Karim Telgi, in 1995 even after Telgi's anticipatory bail plea was rejected by a court. API Jadhav, the court was told, was attached to the Economic Offence Wing (EOW) of the crime branch then. Defence counsel, advocates I P Bagaria and Nikita Ajwani, while opposing police custody remand said that section 161 (1) of the bombay police act stated that "if an offence in excess of colourable duty is committed by a police officer and a complaint is not filed within two years by the state, then no prosecution can be launched." The SIT is investigating 15 cases involving Telgi which were registered by the Mumbai police, but where concerned investigating officers are suspected to have acted soft. This is the third such case where SIT has arrested a concerned police officer, sources said. Bureau Report
