Court sends 3 to custody for assault on policemen

New Delhi: A Delhi court, while remanding three men to 14 days of judicial custody, observed that the prosecution's account presented a disturbing picture of lawlessness and a brazen assault on police personnel in uniform. Judicial magistrate Nidhi Singh, on May 25, noted that the accused even assaulted police officers while being escorted to a police booth, reflecting sustained and repeated defiance of authority and use of violence against law enforcement. "The prosecution's narrative, as encapsulated in the FIR and reiterated by the IO, paints a disturbing picture of lawlessness and brazen assault on uniformed police personnel in the line of duty," the court said. Delhi Police had sought custody of Manish Nagar, Shashikant Sharma, and Tushar, who were arrested for allegedly assaulting four police officers. According to prosecution, on May 23 at Green Park Market, a Mahindra Thar carrying the accused obstructed a Skoda driven by a lone woman, wrongfully restraining her and triggering a traffic jam. When police personnel, including head constable Anuj Tomar and constable Mohan Lal, intervened and asked the accused to clear the road, they allegedly refused. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Roar into Style!

In a contemptuous act, the police uniform of ASI Umesh was torn," the court noted. The prosecution sought custody citing potential witness influence, absconding co-accused, and the gravity of the offence as an attack on the state's law enforcement. The court noted that CCTV footage presented by the investigating officer (IO) prima facie supported the prosecution's claims. It also reviewed medico-legal case (MLC) reports. Head constable Tomar, present in court, had a visible fresh black eye and orbital injury, providing immediate and observable corroboration of the alleged assault.
