Appellant attacks info commissioner, booked for attempt to murder
Lucknow: A dramatic scene unfolded inside the
Uttar Pradesh State Information Commission
in Vibhuti Khand on Wednesday when an enraged appellant allegedly attempted to assault state information commissioner
Mohammad Nadeem
during a hearing.
The incident occurred around noon in room S-07, during a case involving Deepak Shukla vs. Rajendra Singh of RRU University, Prayagraj. Shukla, the appellant, allegedly began shouting and demanding an immediate ruling in his favour. When asked to maintain decorum, he reportedly became violent, hurled abuses, and lunged at Nadeem with intent to harm.
Failing to reach him, Shukla allegedly removed his shoe and hurled it, striking the commissioner on the head. The attack was witnessed by courtroom staff, security personnel, and other attendees. Shukla also has a history of posting threats against the commissioner on social media, including warnings of a physical attack.
In his complaint, commissioner Mohammad Nadeem requested the registration of an FIR against Shukla for attempted assault and obstruction of a public servant. Assistant commissioner of police, Vibhuti Khand, Radha Raman Singh, said that Deepak Shukla was sent to jail for breach of peace.
