Man moves court against DGP (Jails)

Ludhiana, February 28
A Ludhiana resident has filed a petition under Section 156 (3) of the CrPC for registration of a case against the Director General of Police (Jails) for not disclosing the names of 'big fish' involved in drug trafficking in jails.

The complainant, Razau-din Saifi, has claimed that intentionally not disclosing such type of information attracts an offence under various sections of the IPC.
The DGP (Jails), Shashi Kant, had recently given statements regarding involvement of 'big fish' in drug trade in the state.
Taking cognisance of the petition, Chief Judicial Magistrate Munish Arora entrusted the petition to Judicial Magistrate Amarinder Pal Singh for hearing. The case will come up for hearing on March 7.
In the petition, the complainant mainly relied upon news items in which the DGP (Jails) had reportedly stated that he knew people who were behind drug trafficking in the state.
