Woman complainant brings mistreatment allegations against Balipatna Police

With the Bharatpur ‘custodial assault’ case still fresh in the mind, a woman, whose husband has reportedly been missing for the last 27 days, alleged before the police commissioner on Thursday that cops at Balipatna Police Station mistreated her. 

As per reports, the woman’s husband has been missing for 27 days. In this regard, the woman lodged a complaint at Balipatna Police Station and the police too have registered a case. 

But, whenever the worried woman visits the police station to find out if the police have traced out her missing husband she allegedly gets short shrift from the cops there on duty.

She even alleged that the police officers at Balipatna Police Station had warned her against visiting the police station.

She finally met the police commissioner seeking justice. 

“The villagers are of the opinion that my husband has left me because I was torturing him. I don’t know what the villagers told the police, but the police also echoed the same. If I tortured him, I wouldn’t have been doing rounds of the police station. I have been asking the investigating officer (IO) for the CDR but she is also dilly-dallying. If anything bad happens to my husband, who will be responsible for that?” said the woman. 

No reactions were received from Balipatna Police.
