PSI D K Sawant, who was attached to the Mapusa police station, is the second PSI to be dismissed from service following the earlier dismissal of Ponda PSI Ramkrishna Mangueshkar, who was held responsible for the disappearance of diesel from 17 barrels that were seized in a raid. PSI Sawant, who had been suspended following an inquiry into complaints received against him by the Mapusa Merchants Association for his misconduct and threats of extortion, was issued his termination letter by the department late in the evening on June 2. It may be recalled that PSI Sawant had accompanied a delegation of officials from the science and technology department to verify the gauge of the polythene bags being used by the Mapusa traders in the bazaar. A trader who had a stock of bags beyond the prescribed limit of 20 microns, got into a verbal argument with the PSI, alleging that the police were seeking to extort more money from him and began abusing the police. This infuriated PSI Sawant, who publicly assaulted the trader (who was bleeding with a cut on his eye) and later had him admitted in the GMC, Bambolim as well as the ENT hospital, Mapusa for medical treatment, claiming him to be an accused in a case. The trader, then, complained to the Mapusa Merchants Association as well as to then North Goa SP Sharad Aggarwal, who conducted an inquiry into the matter and forced the PSI to tender his written apology. "But there had been other complaints against the probationary officer, PSI Sawant including reporting drunk for duty that led to his dismissal from service," disclosed DIG Mishra. Incidentally, some years ago, the same PSI, it was alleged, as a student activist, was part of a group that had blackened the face of a Congress leader, sources informed. Meanwhile, two inquiries are presently in progress as to the conduct of two female police officers (one PSI and the other, an ASI). While the lady PSI is said to have stolen some flower vases during the IFFI event from the INOX complex, the Assistant sub-inspector (ASI) is reported to have asked for a bribe of Rs 500. ----------------------------------- HERALD 4/05/06 page 3 ----------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOA CIVIC AND CONSUMER ACTION NETWORK --------------------------------------------------------------------------- an initiative of GOA DESC RESOURCE CENTRE to promote civic and consumer rights in Goa --------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOACAN Post Box 78 Mapusa, Goa 403 507 Tel: 2252660 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] website: www.goacan.org --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
