Two policemens were suspended and one other transferred for lapses in the Rohtak gang rape investigation.
Two Haryana Police officials were on Thursday suspended and one other transferred for lapses in the Rohtak gang rape investigation. After Haryana’s Director General of Police Haryana's B. S. Sandhu's review of the Sonipat Rape and Murder case investigation today, Superintendent of Police Sonipat placed ASI Joginder under suspension and also transferred the SHO PS City Sonipat Inspector Ajay to Police Lines, Sonipat.
Rohtak Superintendent of Police Ashwin Shenvi also placed ASI Samunder posted in Police Station Urban Estate under suspension for lapses on their part while conducting the investigation in this matter.
The departmental proceedings against these personnel would be conducted for their misconduct during the investigation. So far, two people have been arrested in the case and a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed for faster probe. A Haryana District court earlier on Monday sent the two accused in seven days of police remand.
The accused will be produced before the Sonipat District court.
Rohtak Police had recorded the woman's gender as 'male' in its report but changed it later to 'female'. The SHO of Sonipat City had been transferred for taking the matter casually.
A young woman who had gone missing from Haryana's Sonipat district on May 9 was abducted, gang-raped and brutally murdered. Her body was found on the outskirts of Rohtak town, 70 km from the national capital, on May 11.
Describing the incident as a "heinous crime against humanity and women", DGP Sandhu said the case challan will be presented in the court within a month.
"In view of the gravity of the crime, we will endeavour to get the case decided within three months and appeal for strictest punishment to the accused," the DGP said.
Asserting that any negligence in tackling crimes against women will not be tolerated, he said action will be taken against erring officials.
