Despite threatening to file a defamation suit, the AMC has so far not done much to protest the way Lisa handled the issue of AMC's using iron tongs.
It has been around a week since animal rights activist and Canadian citizen Lisa Warden stormed into the cattle nuisance control department (CNCD) of the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) and took away around 20 iron tongs to oppose the civic body's use of the same in catching stray dogs.
Despite threatening to file a defamation suit, the AMC has so far not done much to protest the way Lisa handled the issue of AMC's using iron tongs. After legal consultation, the AMC decided to file a defamation suit of Rs 10 crore against Lisa on Saturday, but they failed to file the case that day.
It was decided that they would do so on Monday, but again they have not filed the defamation suit.
Sources in the civic body suggest that the nitty-gritty of the case is still being worked out. "We are still thinking if the suit should be of Rs10 crore or Rs1 crore.
Moreover, deputy municipal commissioner Dilip Mahajan is out of Ahmedabad and so we could not clarify the details of going about it. After clarifying the situation, we might file the defamation on Tuesday," said a source.
The buzz in the civic body is that the AMC officials had also delayed filing the police complaint on time. When the incident took place last Monday, the officials only registered an application with the Dani Limda police station. It was only after Lisa went to Vietnam on Tuesday that the police complaint against her was filed, on Friday.
"The AMC officials had initially just come to us with an application seeking help to retrieve the iron tongs. They were ready to settle the matter if the tongs were returned. Even when they were informed that the tongs had been destroyed, they showed no intention of filing the complaint.
As there was no formal complaint from them, we could not take any action against Lissa and by the time they filed a complaint, Lisa was gone. We could have done something if the complaint was registered on time," said Chandresh C Shastri, police inspector, Dani Limda police station.
