CUNCOLIM POLICE STATION UNDER SCANNER FOR BRIBE ACCEPTING

MARGAO: PSI Prasanna Bhagat of the Cuncolim police station has come under the scanner following a complaint lodged by Jason Goes' family members that Bhagat had asked for 10,000 for releasing him from the clutches of the police.  Jason was a part of the 11-member team of college students that had gone to Cabo de Rama beach on Friday which turned tragic after two of the students met a watery grave.
Goes' family has in a written complaint to DySP Umesh Gaonkar, stated that following the mishap, Jason, a resident of Malbhat, Margao, was summoned to the Cuncolim police station for two consecutive days where PSI Bhagat held Jason responsible for the deaths of the two youth and threatened to put him into the police lockup. Jason's mother, who had accompanied her son to the police station, pleaded with Bhagat to let her son go as he was innocent. Bhagat, then, the complaint states, demanded a sum of 10,000 for his "release".
The Goes family then called up the panchayat minister Manohar "Babu" Azgaonkar, and informed him about the cop's demand for bribe. Azgaokar, it is learnt soon contacted the chief minister Digambar Kamat and also informed the senior police officials about PSI Bhagat's alleged misdeeds. Cuncolim PI Albuqueque, sources said, then pulled up Bhagat and let Jason leave the police station. Dy SP Umesh Gaonkar has ordered an inquiry into the incident. PI Albuquerque will submit his report in that regard to DySP Gaonkar on Monday, police sources said.
The body of Noel Pereira, 17, a Fatorda resident, who had gone missing in the sea, was recovered on Sunday. The police had on Friday recovered the body of Sunil Ramchandani, 16, a resident of Navelim. - TNN

Where is bloody fuc..in bas..rd Home Minister, it is his duty to check the misconduct of his man in uniforms. Is he gone into hybernation?. Or part of this bribe goes to Home Minister as well?. What the hell is going on here, one side family is mourning the death of their beloved son and on other side, grieving classmates has to face the bas..rtd policeman's greed. This clearly shows how these ruscals can frame the inocent people for their self greed for wealth. They should be sacked on the spot and kick out of job that is the only solution for this CHORS

Bloody police of Goa turning a tragedy into extracting money from a grieving classmate.   Prasanna Bhagat is a gutter policeman. This case is certain to be another whitewash as always done By Goan police. Infact Bhagat will claim Jason asked for Rs10,000 to go free.

With all these complaints,accusations  and allegations rolling in about the corrupt Goa Police, Ravi Naik is unlikely to take charge.
Instead he will claim he is sick & undergoing treatment in some expensive hospital.
No sign of the aam admi " man ,Digamber Kamat either.

This Prasanna Bhagat is from Canacona, Bhagatwada.
He was at canacona police station in the year 2008.

Here again we see another example. I do appreciate your reaction
which is normal. But, if Goans are to attain any goal, such reactions and comments
are 'water on duck's back'.
You Goans only seem to want some "abstract" being to do your work of
getting justice. Each one of you on this blog only speak that someone/us/we/Goans should do something. No one on this blog have I read comment about any
issue, saying that: "I and my group will handle this".
You people, most of you on this blog are COWARDS; you all can do nothing for
yourself, nor for your fellowmen. You all only know to give big talks.
If you Goans are really interested in saving your Goa, stand up for yourselves.
Stand up for what is right, and oppose what is wrong. Stand by your fellow Goan
who is wronged, if you have the GUTS. If not, forget your GOA. The rest of
India is going to call it GUHA.

Yes there should be cameras all over, sometimes the havaldars take money on the quiet and don't show it to the bosses. Now the Boss will know exactly what is his share.
