Looks like Cheddi officers who protect such criminals are losing their hold in the dept. Thats GOOD for the Society and the people.
Does it take so many (7 and 1/2) years for justice to be delivered.Because of this so many people are resorting to such acts.They feel that they will get away with criminal acts.
Sincere gratitude towards Police Inspector, Shantharam for his service to the city such criminals should be punished for peace in the society. Police are the major stake holders of peace without them peace is not possible.
