Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 6: This is not the first incident of J&K police helping the influential and the accused persons instead of doing justice with the victim and genuine people. In a case of alleged highhandedness of police, a senior police officer is leaving no stone unturned to shield the accused in an assault case and force the victim's family to accept compensation from the accused, raising serious questions on police working.

The senior officer is alleged to be pressurising the SHO of the concerned police station not to produce challan in the court for the last more than a month as a result of which the victim and his family are running from pillar to post to get justice but all in vain.
"Under the pressure of senior officer, the SHO concerned and his then IO changed the non-bailable offence to bailable offence just to help the accused, who in an inebriated condition, had trespassed into a house and assaulted a youth in a peripheral area of Jammu," police sources alleged.
Out of the three accused, two have got bail while one, who is still out of police net, is an Army jawan who is said to have joined his duty out of state. Despite repeated requests of the victim and his family, the concerned SHO is least bothered to call the third accused for investigation of the case.
Pressure works!
"Under the pressure of senior officer, the SHO concerned and his then IO changed the non-bailable offence to bailable offence just to help the accused, who in an inebriated condition, had trespassed into a house and assaulted a youth in a peripheral area of Jammu."
"Due to the pressure of the senior officer, the concerned SHO has not taken even the medical report of the victim from SMGS, Jammu, where he was admitted for a weak for his treatment," family members alleged, adding that police were not taking medical report from the hospital just to save the accused.
"If they take medical report from the hospital, they will have to book the accused under non-bailable offence which they perhaps don't want," family alleged, saying that the senior officer had been forcing the SHO to delay the production of challan before the court.
The accused was assaulted on April 30 night by the accused at his residence with rods, alleged his family members.
Though the profusely bleeding victim was first taken to the police station, the concerned SHO took no action against the accused. "Police have been trying to save the accused from the very first day of the incident," the family members alleged.
"Will PHQ look into the arbitrary functioning of the senior officer and do justice with the victim?" they asked.
