2 years on, Police fail to investigate complaint of tampering revenue record FIR lodged; investigation inconclusive 1/7/2019 10:52:38 PM K Koushal Early Times Report Jammu, Jan 7: The lackadaisical attitude of Jammu and Kashmir Police (JKP) can be gauged from the fact that scores of officers and two heads of Special Investigation Team (SIT) failed to investigate a single complaint of land grabbing despite registration of FIR thus forcing the complainant to run from pillar to post for justice. As per details available with Early Times, one Jaseel Singh in February 2014 lodged a written complaint with Crime Branch Jammu regarding land grabbing by another person after tampering of revenue records with the connivance of revenue officials who also possessed 'fake state subject'. "In February month of 2014, the complainant approached Crime Branch Jammu with a complaint that a person possessing 'fake state subject' tampered revenue records and sold his ancestral land at village Channi Manhasa, Swankha Morh in Vijapur", said sources. Sources further said that in the month of January 2016, the Crime Branch recommended FIR in this regard and acting on the recommendations, a case under FIR 32/2016 was registered at police station Vijaypur. Despite registration of FIR, no action was taken by the successive concerned police officers, forcing the complainant to knock the doors of higher-ups. After the complainant approached the then Director General of Police (DGP), the officer instructed the then IGP Jammu for investigation of the matter by constituting a Special Investigation Team (SIT). Acting on the directions of higher-ups, the then IGP constituted a SIT headed by Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP)-PCR Jammu, Atul Sharma but the SIT incharge failed to complete the investigation. Later, Girdhari Lal Sharma was appointed as incharge of the SIT but he too failed to take the investigation to logical conclusion and was also transferred and the office of the Zonal Police Headquarters (ZPHQ) vide order no. JZ/CB/PHQ-Samba-07/2018/32426 dated 20-12-2018 appointed Additional Superintendent of Police ASP-Samba Faisal Qureshi as incharge of the same SIT.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
