Well - I put a comment on livejournal - I will just cut and paste it here: It sounds like you have been screwed. After the guy apologised to you, your complaint, in my opinion will get nowhere if you go back to the same station.
I believe that you should write a polite letter describing the entire incident, names and all to the police commissioner, sent by registered post, but a copy needs to be sent to others as well - I suggest a lawyer. Nothing much will come of it, but at least it is likely to leave a mark on the cop in question. I am a member and an ex president of a local residents association. We have cordial relations with the police - but find that it is the higher ups that you can relate to much better and who understand that some of the beat chaps are ax-oles. shiv On Tue April 25 2006 17:02, Manish Jethani wrote: > On 4/24/06, Ravi Rao <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > [Added Cc: manish] > > Last evening a friend and I went to a nearby police station to lodge a > complaint.
