SRINAGAR, Aug 16: The Sopore custodial death has taken a new turn after Early Times reported that one of the arrested policemen in the case wasn’t present on duty when 28-year-old Nazim Rashid Shalla died in police custody on the intervening night of July 30-31.
The newspaper has reported that the detainee number one, selection grade constable Nisar Ahmad Malik, who has been behind the bars since his arrest on August 6th, was continuously at his home in Anantnag, as also at post-wedding feasts in the same area, from July 26th to July 31st.
The DIG North Kashmir Range, Muneer Khan, who is heading the Special Investigating Team probing the case has reportedly said that Nisar had been arrested for “destroying the evidences.”
“If a person who destroyed evidences has been arrested why not those who tortured Nazim to death? The SIT is trying to shield the SOG men who were involved in the torture of Nazim,” a police sources told KNS.
However, another source revealed that Nisar has been arrested under section 201 and not under section 302. “Section 201 is destroying of evidence and Nisar has been arrested for that. In coming days more policemen who tortured Nazim would be arrested,” he added.
Meanwhile, Nazim’s father Abdul Rashid Shalla on Tuesday alleged that police was trying to shield the real culprits.
Talking to KNS over phone senior Shalla said that he had no faith on the the investigating agency probing death of his son. (KNS)
