Is the Investigation of Havelock’s ‘Firemen Attack’ going one sided?
Staff Correspondent
Port Blair, Feb 11: Even after six long days of the Havelock Incident, where Firemen, including the SHO of Havelock Fire Station was trashed by mob, no arrest has been made by the Police Department. There is only one reply to all questions that “a magisterial inquiry is going on”.
To make things easy for the inquiry committee and to make the picture further clearer for our readers, Andaman Sheekha is publishing some photographs of the incident, where one can see the law-abusers who are clearly punching and kicking the SHO of Havelock Fire Station.
The video is clear evidence of barbarism and hooliganism of some people, many of them clearly under influence of alcohol, as they were unable to walk strait.
This has been learnt that till now only a case against unknown people has been registered in PS Havelock, despite of the fact that the SHO of Havelock Island has clearly named people, who have attacked him and his team.
The video also shows that the Dy.S.P of the Havelock was standing right at the spot where some anti-social elements were thrashing the SHO of Fire Station but still the incident occurred. Only a handful of Jawans and public came to the rescue of the SHO of Havelock Fire Station.
The SHO of Havelock Fires Station has reportedly mentioned name of 19 attackers, including Dashrat Sikdar, Kartick (Bappa), Manik Sikdar (Pradhan of Havelock No-4), Sujit Sammader, Sanjay Ex-pradhan.
When the Dy.S.P of Havelock was present on the spot and has seen the attackers, why cases have not been lodged against specific people?

The million dollar question is that in India where you can’t abuse a dog then why the Administration is so quiet, even after a team of Fire Service Jawans were physically abused by mob? If cases like this is dealt so casually no Jawan of Police or Fire Service will feel confident to perform their duties.
This video is available with Andaman Sheekha and will be handed over to investigating agency if demanded.
According to last input the case has been transferred to Dy.S.P Havelock who is also the Investigating Officer of the case.
