The in-charge of Gorakhpur’s Nausad police station in Uttar Pradesh is in the headlines. It is alleged that the in-charge of the post demanded 40 thousand rupees from a young man for installing AC. When the young man showed his inability to pay the money, he said that your situation will deteriorate and you will get worried. Disturbed by repeated demands for money, the victim applied to the SSP. As soon as the matter came to his notice, SSP Dr. Gaurav Grover made the in-charge of the post line up. Also, SP North Jitendra Srivastava has been asked to investigate the entire matter.
Shivkant Mishra, a resident of Hardiya village in Gida police station area, told the SSP that he had lodged his complaint in a case at Gida police station. The investigation of this case was handed over to the in-charge of Naushad police station. The in-charge called a meeting and took information. I told him the whole matter and how Historysheeter was threatening to kill him. That said your case is correct, but very hot in the post here. It is becoming difficult to live here, if you install AC your case will be processed. We would have got relief from the heat and your case would have been prosecuted. We feel very hot here.
The victim told the SSP
The victim told the SSP that at that time I agreed to the pressure, after which the in-charge of the post started calling me continuously and asking for money. I had no money. I somehow managed Rs 20,000. When we went to give it to him, he said it was not enough money, he needed the full 40,000 rupees. If you don’t, your case will suffer. It will be reversed and you will have to give or take. If you agree, you have to pay. The victim had recorded the call of the post in-charge on his mobile. Its investigation has been handed over to SP North Srivastava.
SSP said
SSP Dr. Gaurav Grover said that the matter of demanding money from the in-charge for installing AC in Naushad Chowk has come to my mind. The in-charge of the post has been suspended by taking preliminary action. The investigation of the entire incident has been handed over to SP North. After receiving the report further action will be taken based on evidence and facts.
