Port Blair, October 22: In a recent development it has been learnt by Andaman Sheekha that some people who are sympathises of the accused of the recent Gambling Raid at Manpur had recently met the Chief Secretary, Andaman Nicobar Administration and launched complaint against Police Team of Ograbraj by giving the entire episode a religious color.
The team reportedly targeted the SHO of PS Ograbraj, Inspector Shabana Haneef as according to the delegation she belongs to a different religion and the raid was conducted at Manpur Community Hall where a puja was conducted.
With such pointless complaint there is now huge pressure on Andaman Nicobar Police which is also demoralising hard working police personnel who were continuously tracking gambling and drug peddling cases thinking beyond gender and religious boundaries.
It is worth mentioning here that the Ograbraj Police Station has recently arrested dozens and dozens of accused in religious Gambling and Drug Peddling cases, which has certainly left many power and political bosses very upset.
Being the case of Manpur Raid the complainant is said to be the SDPO of Bambooflat, MA Nausad who was reportedly made hostage and was locked up inside the room of the Community Hall, Manpur by the arrested accused.
In Police Department it is often seen that Police Officers are transferred based on complaint launched by Political Leaders even in pointless ground and in this case if such transfers are made again, it will become a major source of discouragement for entire Police Force.
