Kerala IPS officer Sreelekha alleges harassment by fellow ADGP

Thiruvananthapuram: ADGP (State Crimes Records Bureau) R Sreelekha has kicked up a huge storm by alleging that Transport Commissioner Tomin Thachankary (an ADGP rank officer) had been harassing her for the past 29 years.

In a Facebook post, Sreelekha, who is the first lady IPS officer from Kerala, hit out at Thachankary and alleged that he had played foul against her a number of times.

Sreelekha believes that Thachankary played behind the scenes to get a case registered against her in connection with the alleged tax fraud she committed by sanctioning school bus permits to private buses.

“The incident pertaining to the case occurred when Rishiraj Singh was Transport Commissioner. I had no direct connection with the case and it was a trap laid by Thachankary by influencing the complainants”, Sreelekha wrote in the post.

“Thachankary forced the complainants to file a case in the Thrissur Vigilance Court as he knew that the court would order an FIR based merely on a complaint. Even the confidential report by the Vigilance DySP was leaked to the complainant by the due instructions made by Thachankary,”

The celebrated IPS officer also claimed that Thackankary Sreelekha has alleged in her post. She also pointed out that Thachankar was trying to deny her promotions.

Sreelekha said that her health condition was deteriorating owing to the mental stress caused by Thachankary’s constant harassment.

On his part, Thachankary has dismissed the post as wrong and unfounded.
