Rights panel slams Haryana cops for stripping disabled CA, orders ₹50k relief

Chandigarh: The Haryana Human Rights Commission (HHRC) has indicted a police assistant sub-inspector (ASI) and a constable of forcibly making an arrested chartered accountant (CA), who has a physical disability, to strip to his underwear, allow a relative of his estranged wife to make a video of him in the embarrassing position, and then distribute it. The commission on Wednesday asked the Haryana home department to pay a compensation of Rs 50,000 to the victim, a resident of Faridabad who was arrested in a molestation case registered on a complaint by his wife at Saran police station. The order came from a full quorum bench comprising commission chairman Justice Lalit Batra, judicial member Kuldeep Jain, and member Deep Bhatia, while announcing partial relief in a case pending for three years. The incident dates to May 2021, when the ASI and constable had gone to arrest the victim. The victim alleged that after his arrest, the cops instructed him to remove his clothes in public view. Though he resisted, they coerced him into disrobing himself to his underwear, he alleged. Thereafter, he claimed, the cops facilitated a relative of his estranged wife to click his photo and shoot a video while in a semi-nude condition, and the same was circulated. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Enhance Online Presence and Get Customers [Try Now] Undo "This was not just a grave violation of human rights of the person by cops but resulted in traumatic stigma on the complainant as the video and pictures shot by private persons were circulated in private circles. Now, we have directed the home department to compensate the victim, and the department is at liberty to recover the fine from the errant cops identified as ASI Jagmati and constable Rakesh," said the commissioner in the order. The complainant also claimed that his request to the office of the Faridabad commissioner of police (CP) did not bear fruit. Even before HHRC, the police force was not cooperative and favoured the errant cops by not sharing the video footage of the lock-up. On reinvestigation, a DCP-level officer admitted to the victim being semi-nude but claimed that the victim volunteered to remove his clothes due to the summer heat. The commission did not buy this theory and assigned the investigation to its own investigating team headed by an SP-level officer. During investigation, the allegations were found to be true, and the complainant also brought on record a clip and photographs circulated by the relative of his estranged wife. "Since the availability of the video clip was an admitted fact supported by circumstantial evidence, this was enough to indict the errant cops to announce this order," said Bhatia, HHRC member.
