Vikas Gupta Early Times Report JAMMU, Feb 20: A police Inspector, who wants to be posted as SHO of a police station on the highway in a district of Jammu region, has become the cause of tension of the SSP concered. While the Inspector is at present attached with the concerned DPL, he asks his acquaintances - politicians and senior officers - to influence his SSP for a better posting, according to police sources. "The SSP is so fed up with the frequent telephone calls he receives, recommending the name of Inspector for a posting in any of the highway thanas, that he has started feeling harassed," sources said. The Inspector had virtually become the cause of SSP's tension, the sources added. Sources said though the SSP had effected transfers of SHOs in the recent past and no police station was left vacant in the district, the Inspector was getting him pressurised through his acquaintances to create a vacancy for him by ordering the transfer of any of the SHOs who were posted as heads of thanas by the highway. When he was SI, he had been using the same modus operandi to get posted as in charge of police posts. As Inspector, he has also served in Kathua district for some time. While the SSP had made up his mind to post him as SHO of a far-flung and 'insignificant' police station, he had got the move stopped, sources said. |
