Honourable Sir,
First of all our salutes, whole hearted respects to honest few in police ,
judiciary and public service. It is an appeal to those honest few to catch hold
of their corrupt colleagues. Both of you take lakhs of rupees salary, enjoy 5
star bungalow, flight travel , perks , etc all at tax payer's expense , still
don't do your constitutional duties properly. SCI doesn't even admit our PILs
concerning national security , accountability of public servants , etc although
I have suffered murder attempts, physical assaults, job loss , etc in my
crusade. But SCI has got enough time to hear cases of cricket , movies.
Whether NHRC consists of humans or not needs a clarification. They lack
humanness, empathy. To my RTI requests SCI cites various sections of law
just like criminals, thieves to evade truth. NHRC too cites various sections of
law to evade truth , to evade taking legal action. It is Crime cover up, which
is one more crime by them. Both of them must first read the third grade
acts of police , judges at below articles and following web sites :

How Tamil Nadu Police’s brutal act of revenge claimed lives of a father and
son
Historically, the Tamil Nadu police is notorious for highhandedness and third-
degree torture methods.
By Arun Janardhanan
The death of a father and son due to alleged custodial torture in Sathankulam
town near Thoothukudi in Tamil Nadu has sparked rage across the state. The
Tamil Nadu Traders Association downed shutters across the state on
Wednesday. Victims were traders belonging to the Nadar community, a
socially and politically powerful community in southern Tamil Nadu.
What was the series of events that led to the deaths in police custody?
P Jeyaraj, 62, who worked at his mobile shop at Sathankulam town, was
taken in custody on June 19 evening.
Jeyaraj allegedly made some critical remarks about a police patrol team on
June 18 for insisting shop owners to shut shops early for lockdown rules. An
auto driver had informed police about remarks and the police team had
come the next day to take him in custody. After an agitated police team had
taken Jeyaraj in custody, his son, J Bennix, 32, followed the police team to
the station.
At the Sathankulam police station, a senior police officer said, Bennix saw his
father being physically harassed by an officer. An agitated Bennix questioned
the officer, tried to stop the officer or pushed him to protect his father in his
60s. “It had provoked the police team, they thrashed both father and son for
hours. There were two sub-inspectors and two constables in the torture
team. A total of 13 officers were there at the station during the incident,
including volunteers part of Friends of Police,” the officer said.
The alleged lockdown violation charge on Jeyaraj was something that would
have got him a maximum of three months imprisonment if he was found
guilty.
What happened the next day?
June 20. Jeyaraj’s family who waited outside the station till midnight got to
see the father and son in the morning in “bad shape.” They were taken to
the Sathankulam government hospital. Jeyaraj’s veshti and Bennix’s pants
were fully soaked in blood. They had to keep changing lungis at the hospital
due to severe bleeding. Policemen asked the family to bring “dark colour
lungis”.
After three hours at the hospital, they were then taken to Sathankulam
magistrate court.
Joseph, Jeyaraj’s brother in law who witnessed the scene, said the magistrate
waved his hand from the first floor of the building as the police team stood
outside. Both were sent on remand to Kovilpatti Sub Jail in a few moments.
The family had no news about the father and son till June 22 evening, when
they were shifted to the nearby government hospital. Due to continuous
bleeding and severe external and internal injuries from alleged lock up
torture, Bennix died late evening on June 22, and Jeyaraj died in the wee
hours on June 23.
What action has been taken?
Even as two FIRs have been filed, no officer has been booked for murder
charges. Following the outrage and protests, four police officers including
two sub-inspectors have been placed under suspension. The station
inspector has been transferred. A judicial inquiry is in progress, post mortem
report has been submitted to the Madras High Court in a sealed cover, and
the court is waiting for a report from police.
K Chandru, a retired judge of Madras High Court, said even during the
emergency, people had the right to approach the court. “But the latest
lockdown scenario had shifted full powers to the police and bureaucracy.
That when the High Court itself talks about the pandemic being equal to
Emergency and that the officials must be given due weight of the situation, it
sends a wrong signal to the magistracy. There are innumerable instances
where they deviate from protecting the constitutional rights of the citizens.”
In this case, the judicial magistrate should be dismissed from service for
judicial impropriety and misconduct, the former Justice said, adding it was his
job to check on injuries and bleeding, he should have raised questions to
police and accused instead of remanding them with an order saying “no
complaints”.

Few years ago, some police officers in Mysuru allegedly stopped a bus
going to Kerala, detained a passenger and knocked off a huge amount
of cash he was carrying. On his complaint, an investigation was
conducted and some serving police officers were charged for the crime.
But the larger question is how do such people get into the police force in
the first place? Is there no system to screen such people from entering
the system? Police recruitment does not have a system of identifying
potential wrong doers.
Usually physical efficiency test, written test and personal interviews are
held for selection. Police departments of five states are now
incorporating questions related to assessment of a person’s
psychological makeup into the written test.
But potential misfits are not flagged and removed based on their
answers. In personal interviews of police sub-inspectors in Karnataka, a
psychologist is part of the interview board. But no candidate seems to
have been rejected based on the psychologist’s assessment.
It is also a well-known that police training does not get the importance it
deserves. Hence even at this stage, undesirable persons do not usually
get weeded out.
As per the data of the National Crime Research Bureau (NCRB), the
total number of criminal cases registered against policemen were 1,989
in 2013; 2,600 in 2014 and 5,526 in 2015. Of these 5,526 cases, Kerala
itself accounted for 3,080 cases, whereas Karnataka reported only 84
cases. Considering that people in general do not make complaints
against policemen in India, this figure is alarming.
Rare punishments
Out of the 5,526 cases, 4,367 cases were charge sheeted and in 1,512
cases police personnel were arrested. However, the total number of
police personnel convicted is only 25. These figures indicate that
wrongdoers rarely get punished.
Can such crimes be stopped? The answer is ‘no’. There will be black
sheep in the department. However, such crimes can be minimised.
This can be done by screening the applicants for police jobs by using
well established psychometric tests, instilling strong sense of values
during training and having periodic refresher training courses, taking
strict action including dismissing from the service against those with
criminal bent of mind and constantly monitoring the activities of at least
those police men who come to adverse notice.

Due to old record in Kurla police station, it had become a regular routine of
detaining me. Every time or whenever any incident took place in Mumbai, I
was called by police for a formal interrogation. Besides those two false cases
registered by Kurla police,. I do not have any other criminal record as I was
living a normal life in Mumbai.
On 11 July, 2006, serial bomb blasts took place on Western Railway during
peak hours, that time I was at home. When I learned about the blast at Mira
Road, I went to the blast site to help the victims. I knew very well that police
will come to me for formal enquiry like the regular police routine, that had
been a trend since 2001. Hence senior police Inspector namely Murade of
Mira Road police station came to my house on 13 July, 2006 in evening time
and asked me to come to the police station on the next day. On 14 July, 2006
at 11:00 am, I went to Mira Road police station to meet Sr. PI Murade. He
questioned me about my whereabouts and asked me for my phone number,
which I gave him (28115084) and left the police station. He also told me that
if required for further investigation I will be called.
Torture position 1: Hitting the victim by flour mill belt on the inner part
of hand, buttock and feet about 200 times per spell leaving part of hand
and feet in blue colour with strong pain during torture. Other body parts
too were hit by this belt any part of body
ATS officer took me to unit-II office and they started beating me, they never
told me any thing why they had arrested me but kept beating me. While
torturing they used to say that too musalman hai isliye tere ko mar rahe
hain (You are Muslim therefore we are thrashing you) with every blow they
used to abuse my religion and said tere ko yehan koi nahi bachayega (No
one will save you here). On 03 August, 2006 I was cruelly tortured by PSI
Shailesh Gaekwad, PSI Sunil Mane and PI Vilas Joshi and asked me to
accept the said crime of bomb blast in front of senior officials of ATS because
of the torture I agreed to do whatever the ATS officers told me to do. After
which they took me to ATS head office, where ATS Chief KP Raghuvanshi
and DCP Naval Bajaj were seated in the office. There in front of these senior
officers I complained about the torture that PSI Shailesh Gaekwad, PSI Sunil
Mane and PI Vilas Joshi had done, and I also told ATS chief KP
Raghuvanshi, that I am innocent and they are trying to involve me in the blast
case. But to my surprise KP Raghuvanshi slapped me and told the officers
that this torture was not enough and asked them to take me to Bhoiwada and
beat me black and blue. I completely lost faith in the senior-most officers as
well as junior officers because this fraud of framing innocent people was
ordered by senior officers of ATS including ATS chief. That on next day i.e.
on 05 August, 2006 an officer namely PI Sunil Deshmukh took me to
Chandan Chowki at Juhu where the officers conducted Narco analysis test
which was illegal and without permission of court, and the officers from
Forensic Science Laboratory, Mumbai were also present there. Before taking
me to Chandan Chowki, I was taken for medical check up at KEM Hospital,
where I had complained about the torture, the medical officer present there
referred to get x-ray and gave some medicines. However the medical reports
were false and no report of torture was registered. After the illegal Narco test
DCP Naval Bajaj told me that, I confirm that you are innocent and we will
transfer you to judicial custody on 12 August, 2006. However the next day I
was taken to Nagpada unit-II by PI Dinesh Ahir, and upon reaching there he
along with other officers tortured me and also gave electric shock on my
private parts. After torturing me for ten hours they left me back to Bhoiwada
lock up.
On 29 September, 2006, I was tortured continuously for five hours using third
degree methods by PSI Sachin Kadam, later I was produced before police
commissioner AN Roy and ATS chief KP Raghuvanshi. Both the senior
officers laughed at me and KP Raghuvanshi told me that I have been
implicated in the blast case and forget about India being a democratic
country. India is a Hindu rashtra and there is no place for Muslims in India.
Muslims in India are only for jail and encounter. Now the only way to protect
yourself from long imprisonment is that you become an approver in this case.
I refused to become an approver and told them that the method to save
myself was that you people catch the real culprits and release the innocent
people. On this AN Roy told me that I have pressure from the home minister
of India and home minister of state, and we are unable to do anything
besides framing the case on you people and fabricating evidence against
you people because I have to answer my seniors also. After this AN Roy told
me that tomorrow we are calling a press conference and you all will be
famous as terrorists.
In the 75 days long period, police custody, ATS officers used third degree
method for torture. The third degree torture methods which were used by
ATS officers on me are as follows:
• ATS officers used belt, which is used in flour mill, to beat us. They
strike on the inner part of hand and feet about 200 times per spell
leaving part of hand and feet in blue colour with strong pain during
torture. After beating the parts of hands and feet become swollen.
Medical officer of KEM Hospital supported ATS by not examining
properly. ATS also used this belt to torture us also on any part of body,
even on buttock also, due to this torture I cannot sit properly.
• ATS officers gave me shock using an electric current machine by
making me nude. They used to tie wire on thumbs of legs and private
parts of body. After that they pass the current at regular intervals. ATS
used this method of torture four times on me during police custody.
• After removing my clothes, I was made to sit down on floor, both hands
tied by rope behind the body, thereafter my both legs stretched in
opposite direction making 180 degree angle. This torture method was
repeated many times. During the period of custody they stretched my
legs five times.
• ATS officers tied me on a chair, which is kept very close to wall, they
tied my head in a way that I cannot move my head anywhere in any
direction. Then they dropped the water drop-by drop on my scalp upto
eight hours. Due to this torture very strong pain occurred in neck and
head.
• They used to tie me upside down (i.e. in reverse position) and my both
legs and hands also tied by rope, then they used to pour water in my
nose at regular intervals about one hour, they used this technique of
torture on me 3 times.
• ATS officers threatened me that my family members also will be
arrested in this case or brought by ATS and they will be molested, if I
do not sign on confessional statement. They used the example of the
family of my co-accused Faisal Shaikh, who was molested by Vijay
Salaskar team in front of me.
• ATS officers, including senior officers of IPS rank police commissioner
AN Roy and ATS chief KP Raghunvanshi had given huge amount of
cash after release, and also given the inducement of settlement
anywhere in the world. These officers also promised many times to
discharge me from the case if I became an approver.
