Gilbert. ====== NT Staff Reporter Panaji, Sept 10 Alleging that some police inspectors and constables are getting involved in criminal activities, the leader of the opposition, Mr Manohar Parrikar today demanded an investigation into the complaints about certain police constables joining hands with the land mafia and forcefully evicting tenants of prime land areas. Addressing a press conference this evening, Mr Parrikar said that a committee appointed for handling statutory policy matters about the police department, under the chairmanship of the Chief Minister, with the opposition leader as its member, had not met for a long time. "There is an urgent need to convene a meeting of this committee, especially to discuss the nexus between the police and the criminals," he observed, adding that this nexus is more prominent in places like Panaji and Margao
