Synopsis
The statement said the J-K Police is a professional force and sensitive to public anguish, but it has a legal responsibility to ensure law and order as well.
Agencies
The Jammu and Kashmir Police on Saturday said it is keeping a close watch on elements attempting to leverage the situation in Palestine to disturb peace and order in the
valley and would not allow “cynical encashment” of the public anger to trigger violence and lawlessness.
It warned that “irresponsible” social media comments that result in actual violence and breaking of law, including COVID protocol, will attract legal action.
THE police force is a trendsetter.
This is unprecedented. It started with revelations or alleged unlawful conduct and political interference in the force by former inspector-general of police (IGP). It undermines the integrity, legitimacy, and professionalism of the Force.
A Malay proverb says “kalau tiada angin masakan pokok bergoyang”.
This Hari Raya, police again stand out with creative initiatives to catch standard operating procedure (SOP) offenders.
Besides roadblocks, they are also involved in monitoring social media postings. Additionally, they are updating interstate application system to weed out fake documents. Technology also helps with deployment of drones to catch violators. Violators will be caught red-handed when a special team conduct surveillance to look out for significant numbers of parked vehicles in an area or number of footwears outside a residence.
Pshaw! Rogue Cops Prowling Listen to article
Regarding the enormous task on the plate of the Police Administration as scanty, will be pretentious. That pointed out, we shall also not play down the activities of rogue cops in the Service. Let the administration devise fresh means of identifying such officers and disciplining them and where necessary, dismissing them. Their image denting activities do not stop at the doorsteps of the Inspector General only but casts a slur on the government in the minds of persons who hardly understand how the complex machinery of the state works.
Such persons would clearly avoid holding the Police Administration at the head of which is the Inspector General Of Police responsible for the rogue conduct of the bad nuts in uniform but rather point at the government.
