JAMMU, Oct 14: Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) Jammu today directed the Crime Branch to investigate the alleged custodial death of a youth Rajneesh Sharma at Ram Munshi Bagh Police Station and submit the report at the earliest while as mother, wife and brother of the deceased have warned of self-immolation if the Government failed to provide them justice.
The directions to Crime Branch were passed in a complaint under Section 156 (3) CrPC filed by Anchal Sharma, alias Amina Yousaf, wife of deceased Rajneesh Sharma and his mother Raj Kumari Sharma, wife of late Nanak Chand against SHO Ram Munshi Bagh Police Station and others.
After hearing Advocates Leela Karan Sharma and Vishal Sharma appearing for the complainants, Chief Judicial Magistrate, Y P Bourney said, "in the complaint serious allegations have been leveled against police officers for having allegedly acted as hired goons of the private respondents. So the matter is required to be investigated by the Crime Branch as a youth has lost life in the police custody".
With these observations, the CJM forwarded the complaint to Incharge Police Station Crime Branch for investigation into the allegedly custodial death of Rajneesh Sharma.
In the complaint, the family has prayed for registration of case against the alleged accused namely Mushtaq Ali, SHO P/S Ram Munshi Bagh Srinagar, Abdul Qayoom, ASI P/S Ram Munshi Bagh Srinagar, Mohd Yousaf Marazi, Tariq Ahmed Marazi, Javid Ahmed Marazi, Javid Riaz Bedar, SSP Srinagar, SP Srinagar, SDPO and staff of P/S Ram Munshi Bagh Srinagar, SHO P/S Bakshi Nagar and SDPO West and demanded stern action against them for custodial killing of innocent youth Rajneesh.
Meanwhile, Anchal Sharma, Raj Kumari Sharma and Pawan Sharma have warned of self-immolation if they failed to get justice from the Government, which, according to them, has not shown any seriousness so far to punish the guilty. The family has also refused to take any compensation and compassionate jobs from the Government.
"It is very painful that even after 10 days of Rajneesh’s custodial killing all the accused persons have been moving freely", they said in a joint press conference at their residence this afternoon, adding "this clearly indicates that Government wants to stifle our voice by offering Rs 3 lakh compensation and two jobs as SPOs".
Making it clear that they will not accept any compensation from the Government till stern action is taken against the accused persons, they gave three days time to the Government for handing over the case to Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) failing which they will start protest outside the Parliament for seeking the intervention of Prime Minister.
"If we fail to get attention of Prime Minister, we will be left with no other option but to go in for self-immolation and for the same only Government will be responsible", they further said.
