Police officer suspended for third degree interrogation of girl in Jharkhand
Ranchi: In a case of alleged police brutality, a Class 10 girl student fell unconscious and had to be hospitalised after she was interrogated for more than 10 hours at a police station in Jharkhand’s Latehar district.
The girl remained unconscious for more than 70 hours after the questioning by police on June 14 at Manika Police Station in Latehar.
Latehar Superintendent of Police Anup Birthare has suspended Sub-Inspector Ram Pravesh Sharma posted at Manika Police Station after he was found guilty of questioning the girl for more than 10 hours inside the police station without the presence of a woman police constable or even her parents.
The girl was admitted to the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), Ranchi. She fell unconscious after her release from the police station and was taken to a local hospital in Latehar district. She was later brought to RIMS Ranchi for treatment.
She regained consciousness for some time on Friday and told her family members that she was thrashed and throttled by police during interrogation. According to the girl’s father, police took her mobile phone on June 13 and she was taken to the police station on June 14. She was being interrogated in a case related to the elopement of a girl a month ago. The eloped girl is said to be friend of the victim.
The incident has once again brought under scrutiny the working of the police in the state.
The police official has been held accountable for negligence. It is alleged that due to the pressure of questioning the girl’s health deteriorated and she fell unconscious.
The SP has asked the Deputy Superintendent Police Barwadih, Mangal Singh Jamuda, to probe the case.
The SP himself has announced that the cost of treatment of the girl would be borne by him, while the cost of her education and other expenses would be provided by Latehar police.
Earlier State Women’s Commission chairperson Mahua Manjhi met the girl at RIMS.
The state Child Rights Protection Commission had directed Director General of Police D.K. Pandey to take action in the matter pointing to gross irregularities by the policeman while questioning the girl.
The girl has been lying unconscious and is undergoing treatment at RIMS. It appears that she was mentally tortured due to which she became unconscious.
The commission has directed to provide free treatment and adequate compensation from the police.
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
