Mumbai, July 05: In a move to expedite cases of
pending departmental inquiries, Mumbai police has initiated a
review of 68 cases under the leadership of a police officer of
the rank of the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) level,
Joint Commisioner of police(admin) P K Jain has said.
The 68 cases include cases of corruption and complaints against certain police personnel, Jain said.
"We have appointed an officer of the DCP rank to ensure close scrutiny of the papers", Jain, who recently took over the post, said. The DCP would ensure that the papers do not contain any technical flaws. "Many of the cases sometimes cannot be pursued in a court of law due to inherent technical flaws while drafting the entire papers,” he said. The DCP, who would be drawn the special task force, would be handed over additional duties of examining the pending cases. He would be preparing a report and discussing the same with senior officers.
"We will soon be discussing the content of the cases and modalities to be worked out as far as the departmental inquiries are concerned,” he said.
On the measures to be adopted to nip corruption among the force, he said, "I think it is only the carrot and stick policy that will finally work. A police personnel can be counselled and if he does not heed, he needs to be shown the stick".
